Top Franz Wagner News

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Hits 20-point mark Tuesday

    Wagner recorded 20 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 22 minutes in Tuesday's 132-116 preseason win over the Cavaliers.

    Wagner delivered an efficient offensive performance, converting 70 percent of his field-goal attempts while finishing second on Orlando in scoring behind Paolo Banchero, who finished with 24 points. The forward also led all players with eight assists, committing just one turnover while helping the Magic control the contest from the opening stages. His two steals added to an impressive all-around showing, and his ability to contribute as both a scorer and facilitator should make him a valuable multi-category fantasy option heading into the regular season. He figures to be the Magic's No. 2 option on offense behind Banchero.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Scores 10 points in loss Sunday

    Wagner finished with 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and three assists over 15 minutes in Sunday's 119-105 preseason loss to the Cavaliers.

    After scoring six points in Wednesday's preseason win over the Grizzlies, Wagner reached double figures in scoring Sunday. He did commit four turnovers, but considering this hasn't been much of an issue during his career, it's not a cause for concern. The 25-year-old averaged 20.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists across 30.0 minutes in 2025-26. However, Wagner was limited to 34 regular-season games. The 2021 No. 8 overall pick is an All-Star-caliber player, though his ceiling won't be as high until he proves he can stay off the injury report moving ahead.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Dishes out seven assists

    Wagner finished with six points (2-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and two steals in 14 minutes during Wednesday's 122-118 preseason victory over Memphis.

    Wagner struggled with his shot but made a significant impact as a facilitator, leading Orlando in assists despite limited playing time. His ability to contribute across multiple categories should remain a key part of his fantasy appeal heading into the regular season.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Ready for new year

    Wagner (calf) is eager for the new season to begin, per Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel.

    After sitting out for Germany during FIBA World Cup action over the summer, Wagner appears to have a clean bill of health this fall. Ankle and calf injuries held Wagner to just 34 regular-season appearances last year, but the star forward was highly effective when healthy to the tune of 20.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 0.9 steals per game.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Sits out for Germany

    Wagner (calf) did not participate in Germany's latest FIBA World Cup qualifying window as he focuses on preparing for the 2026-27 NBA season.

    Wagner was limited to 34 regular-season appearances for Orlando last season but remained productive when available, averaging 20.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 30.0 minutes per game. The 25-year-old remains one of the centerpieces of the Magic's offense and should continue handling a significant scoring and playmaking workload alongside Paolo Banchero. Wagner's well-rounded production gives him considerable fantasy upside entering his sixth NBA season.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Won't play in Game 7

    Wagner (calf) has been ruled out for Game 7 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday against the Pistons, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

    Wagner will end up missing the final three games of the series while tending to a right calf strain. Even if the Magic were to emerge victorious and move onto the semifinals, there's no guarantee that Wagner would be available for the start of that series. Anthony Black and Jamal Cain will continue to work in extended roles in Wagner's absence.

  • Magic's Franz Wagner: Ruled out for Friday

    Wagner (calf) is out for Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Friday against the Pistons.

    The Magic at least left the door open for Wagner to play through a right calf strain in Game 5, but Orlando is quickly ruling out the star forward a day in advance of a critical Game 6. Jamal Cain drew the spot start in Wednesday's loss to Detroit, while Anthony Black logged 39 minutes, his most of the series, in Game 5.
