Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) ruled out Wednesday for Magic
Orlando Magic power forward Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday versus the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
Carter didn't appear to aggravate his wrist injury on Monday, but he has nevertheless been ruled out for the third time in four games. Chuma Okeke will likely make his way back into the starting lineup on Wednesday, and there will be more work for Moe Wagner and Mo Bamba.
WCJ played 27 minutes on Monday and scored 39.4 FanDuel points while recording 15 points with 12 boards and 6 assists. Okeke is averaging 30.4 minutes and 27.5 FanDuel points per game as a starter this season.
