Orlando's Evan Fournier will likely play Friday against Phoenix
Orlando Magic small forward Evan Fournier (wrist) went through shootaround and will likely play on Friday versus the Phoenix Suns.
What It Means:
Fournier has missed the Magic's last three games with a wrist injury, but it looks as if he will be ready to make his return to the starting lineup tonight. Mario Hezonja is coming off career-highs with 21 points and 37 minutes against the Chicago Bulls, but with Fournier back, he will likely return to the bench.
Fournier has a nERD of 1.1 this season, and he comes into tonight averaging 14.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. Fournier's hot shooting from beyond the arc has his True Shooting Percentage up to 57.6 percent this season.
