Suggs (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports. The Magic will be without Suggs for a sixth straight game as the rising star deals with a back strain.

The Orlando Magic reveal what Jalen Suggs' back injury return will "depend on," as he remains out against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo had high praise for Paolo Banchero and the Magic after Friday’s game at Kia Center. “Orlando is a dangerous team,” the two-time NBA MVP said.

The Orlando Magic offense has slowed to a crawl in January, and even if Paolo Banchero plays his first game since October, the Milwaukee Bucks should win going away, per our NBA betting picks.

Suggs (back) will not play Sunday against the 76ers. The Magic announced Jan. 9th that Suggs would be sidelined indefinitely, so this update isn't a big surprise. Suggs' next chance to play will be Jan.

Orlando has managed to weather the injury storm thanks to a strong defense. The Magic should be able to bottle up Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks as they deliver another Under, per our NBA betting picks.

The Magic are 4-6 in their last 10 games. Yet, they have the same record now as they did at this point last season. So, what gives?

Suggs doesn't appear to have a clear timetable for his return to action after suffering the back injury on Jan. 3. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Cole Anthony should continue to start in the backcourt with Suggs out. CBS Sports is a registered trademark of CBS Broadcasting Inc.

Rookie Stephon Castle impressed with 20 points of his own for San Antonio. Devin Vassell chipped in 21 while Victor Wembanyama had 19 points, 12 boards and six blocks. The team falls to 19-21 on the season and have now lost five of their last six games.

Prior to his low back injury, Suggs averaged 16.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.47 steals during 29.0 minutes in 34 starts.

Facing the defending champion Boston Celtics, the Magic say they are 'getting up' for Friday's national TV bout.
