Wendell Carter Jr. (knee) could sit out Wednesday for Magic
Orlando Magic forward/center Wendell Carter Jr. (sore right knee) is now questionable for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
Carter is a late addition to the injury report and trending toward missing the second leg of the Magic's back-to-back. Goga Bitadze and Moritz Wagner will likely handle most of the center minutes if Carter is sidelined.
numberFire's models project WCJ for 28.9 minutes and 30.4 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Magic's implied total (115.5) is tied for No. 4 out of 16 active teams today.
