Magic's Moritz Wagner: Solid outing in Olympic loss
Wagner posted 16 points (7-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 24 minutes in Saturday's 93-83 loss by Germany to Serbia in the bronze medal game of the Paris Olympics.
Wagner produced his highest scoring outing of the Paris Olympics in this game, but it was not enough to lift the team past Nikola Jokic and Serbia. The 27-year-old Wagner was not asked to do much in the scoring department alongside Franz Wagner and Dennis Schroder, but he did shoot an efficient 52.5 percent from the field during the Paris Olympics. In six Olympic appearances, Wagner averaged 9.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 17.0 minutes per game.
