The Orlando Magic visit the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, February 24, with tip-off set for 10:30 PM ET at Crypto.com Arena.

Orlando enters at 29-26, eighth in the Eastern Conference, while Los Angeles sits 34-21 and fifth in the West.

The Magic will be without Franz Wagner, who remains out with a left high ankle sprain under injury management. Jalen Suggs is listed as questionable due to a back strain, while Colin Castleton and Alex Morales are out on two-way G League assignments.

Wagner has averaged 21.3 points in 28 games this season and provides secondary scoring next to Paolo Banchero and Desmond Bane. His absence removes a wing who shoots 36.5% from three and 82.8% from the line.

Banchero leads the team with 21.5 points and 8.4 rebounds per game, while Bane adds 20.1 points on 48.3% shooting.

The Magic have won two straight on the road, including a 111-109 victory over the Clippers on February 22 and a 131-94 win in Sacramento on February 19.

Los Angeles lists Jaxson Hayes as doubtful with a right ankle sprain. Bronny James and Adou Thiero are out on G League assignments.

The Lakers remain healthy at the top of the rotation, led by Luka Doncic, who is averaging 32.8 points, 8.5 assists, and 7.7 rebounds. Austin Reaves contributes 25.2 points and 5.7 assists, and LeBron James adds 21.7 points and 7.1 assists in his 23rd season.

The Lakers split their last two games, defeating the Clippers 125-122 before falling 111-89 to Boston on February 22.
