Elfird Payton good to go Thursday for Magic

Orlando Magic guard Elfrid Payton (right ankle) will play against the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday, according to head coach Frank Vogel.

What It Means:

Payton tweaked his ankle earlier in the week but it looks like he is ready to play Thursday. D.J. Augustin has been starting, but Payton has still seen his normal minutes off the bench and has performed pretty well in the few games as a reserve.

Our models expect Payton to have 31 minutes tonight with 11.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.2 steals.
