Franz Wagner Suffers High Ankle Sprain, Out 2-4 Weeks
Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner was diagnosed with a high left ankle sprain on Monday, an injury sustained during Sunday's game against the Knicks after a hard foul. While the Magic haven't set a timetable, ESPN's Shams Charania reports he is expected to miss 2-4 weeks and the remainder of the NBA Cup. An MRI confirmed the high ankle sprain, thankfully avoiding more serious structural damage. Wagner, who averages 23.4 points and 6.2 rebounds, will be sidelined for Tuesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal game against the Heat.
