Final Injury Report for Wizards-Magic: Key Players' Status Ahead of Game The Washington Wizards and Orlando Magic are set to face off in an Eastern Conference matchup on Thursday night, with both teams navigating injury challenges ahead of the contest. The Wizards, who entered the game with a 16-48 record, aim to rebound from a recent loss to the Miami Heat, while the Magic, with a 36-28 record, seek to extend their winning streak after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers. Washington’s center Alex Sarr led the team in Tuesday’s game against the Heat, scoring 28 points and grabbing six rebounds, while guard Will Riley contributed 22 points and four rebounds. The Wizards will look to build on that performance as they travel to Orlando, though several key players remain sidelined due to injuries. Trae Young, who missed the previous game due to injury management, is expected to return against the Magic after being removed from the injury report. However, guard Bub Carrington is listed as questionable due to a right hip flexor soreness, potentially forcing him to miss his first game of the season. If Carrington is unavailable, Tre Johnson and Jaden Hardy may see increased playing time. Other Wizards players ruled out include center Anthony Davis, guard Kyshawn George, and forward Cam Whitmore, all recovering from injuries. Guard D’Angelo Russell remains inactive for the team. On the Magic’s side, forward Franz Wagner and guard Anthony Black are both out for the game. Wagner, sidelined since February 19 due to a left ankle injury, has no expected return date, leaving Tristan da Silva, Jett Howard, and Noah Penda to share more minutes. Black, meanwhile, is missing his third consecutive game after an abdominal strain. The matchup is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.#orlando_magic #washington_wizards #alex_sarr #trae_young #franz_wagner
