Magic's Jamal Cain: Goes for season-high 20 points
Cain totaled 20 points (9-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 25 minutes during Friday's 127-103 victory over the Bulls.
Cain scored a season-high 20 points, albeit against an opponent that seemingly gave up before the game even started. Although Cain has been able to carve out a spot in the rotation, this performance should be viewed as more of an outlier, given that he had scored in single digits in the previous four games.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Cleared to play Wednesday
Cain (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Cain exited Monday's win over the Pistons in the second quarter and did not return due to a left calf contusion. However, the 27-year-old forward will be back in action Wednesday. Over four appearances in April, he has averaged 9.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 21.8 minutes per tilt.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Expected to play
Cain (calf) is expected to play Wednesday against Minnesota, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Cain made it through shootaround and "should be good to go," according to coach Jamahl Mosley. Cain, who is listed as questionable, holds averages of 8.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.0 three-pointers in 19.6 minutes over his last seven outings.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Iffy for Wednesday
Cain is questionable for Wednesday's game against Minnesota with a left calf contusion.
Cain left Monday's win over the Pistons in the second quarter with the injury and was unable to return. If his absence extends into Wednesday, Tristan da Silva could pick up a few extra minutes.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Doesn't return Monday
Cain exited Monday's 123-107 win over the Pistons in the second quarter due to a left calf contusion and did not return, finishing with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 11 minutes.
Cain checked out with 8:29 remaining in the second quarter and never checked back in after being deemed doubtful to return. He can be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves until Orlando offers an update on his status.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Doubtful to return Monday
Cain is doubtful to return to Monday's game against the Pistons due to a left calf contusion, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.
Cain logged just over 11 minutes before exiting due to the calf injury. If he's unable to return, he'll finish with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Chips in eight points off bench
Cain totaled eight points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Friday's 138-127 win over the Mavericks.
Cain was coming off a strong 17-point showing Wednesday against the Hawks, but he was unable to replicate that type of offensive production Friday night. Still, he managed to contribute across the board, which included dishing out a season-high four assists. Cain is averaging 9.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists over his last five matchups, all off the bench.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Returning to bench
Cain isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Kings.
Cain drew a spot start Tuesday against the Cavs and took full advantage, as he put up 17 points in 32 minutes. However, he'll retreat to his usual bench role Thursday with Jalen Suggs back from an illness.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Season-high 17 points in start
Cain finished Tuesday's 136-131 loss to the Cavaliers with 17 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes.
Cain moved into the starting lineup, dropping a season-high 17 points, albeit in a losing effort. With both Jalen Suggs (illness) and Anthony Black (abdomen) sidelined yet again, Cain was given the starting nod for the first time this season, and certainly made the most of his opportunity. While we aren't running to add him, he is a name to watch, just in case this performance leads to an increased role moving forward.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Entering starting five
Cain is starting Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Cain will draw his first start of the season with both Jalen Suggs (illness) and Anthony Black (abdomen) sidelined for Tuesday's matchup. Cain has appeared in nine games off the bench in March and is averaging 6.4 points and 2.6 rebounds in 13.7 minutes.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Upgraded to standard deal
Cain agreed to a standard contract with the Magic on Friday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
After joining Orlando on a one-year, two-way deal in July, Cain has been upgraded to a standard contract and will be eligible to play in the postseason. The 27-year-old forward has averaged 3.5 points and 1.1 rebounds in 8.0 minutes per contest across 27 appearances this season. He has logged double-digit minutes in four straight games and could remain in the rotation in the short term while Franz Wagner (ankle), Anthony Black (abdomen) and Jonathan Isaac (knee) are sidelined.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Sticks in rotation Monday
Cain provided two points (1-1 FG), three rebounds and one assist across 14 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Hawks.
After logging 19 minutes and producing 12 points, seven rebounds and one block in the Magic's previous game Saturday in Miami, Cain remained in the rotation for the second straight contest. The two-way player hasn't been a factor for the Magic for much of the season, but Cain appears to have at least temporarily gained the trust of head coach Jamahl Mosley. Cain could see his minor role in the rotation disappear once the likes of Anthony Black (abdomen) and Franz Wagner (ankle) return to action, however.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Sticks in rotation Tuesday
Cain ended with one point (1-2 FT), one rebound and one assist across nine minutes during Tuesday's 144-103 victory over the 76ers.
Cain remained in the rotation during the blowout win, logging minutes for the fourth time in the Magic's past five games. To this point, he has offered nothing in terms of tangible production, scoring a total of just eight points during that five-game span. He can safely be left on the waiver wire in all formats.

Magic's Jamal Cain: Inks two-way deal with Orlando
The Magic signed Cain to a two-way contract Friday.
After not receiving a qualifying offer from the Pelicans, Cain became an unrestricted free agent, which ultimately led to him joining his new squad. He began his NBA career with the Heat before playing for New Orleans during the 2024-25 campaign. He's averaged 4.8 points and 2.1 rebounds while shooting 45.9 percent from the floor and 33.6 percent from beyond the arc across 81 regular-season games in three campaigns in the league.

Pelicans' Jamal Cain: Pours in 18 points in finale
Cain posted 18 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 115-100 loss to Oklahoma City.
Cain finished as New Orleans' second-leading scorer during Sunday's regular-season finale. The 26-year-old two-way player will be a restricted free agent during the offseason, and he finished the 2024-25 campaign with averages of 5.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 0.6 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.2 blocks across 13.6 minutes per game in 37 regular-season appearances.

Pelicans' Jamal Cain: Scores season-high 25 points
Cain had 25 points (8-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 153-104 loss to the Heat.
Due to New Orleans dealing with a laundry list of injuries to end the 2024-25 season, Cain has begun to receive increased playing time. The 26-year-old forward recorded season highs in points (25) and minutes played (35) in Friday's blowout loss. For the first time this season, Cain has scored double-digit points in three straight outings.

Pelicans' Jamal Cain: Posts massive line
Cain recorded 20 points (6-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds and one steal in 27 minutes during Thursday's 136-111 loss to the Bucks.
Cain erupted for a career-high 20 points in the loss, stepping up for a New Orleans team that was extremely shorthanded. The Pelicans could get some reinforcements back for the second leg of this back-to-back set, but Cain may have earned himself a longer look in the rotation in the final two games of the regular season.

Pelicans' Jamal Cain: Instant offense off bench Tuesday
Cain logged 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds and two steals over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 119-114 loss to the Nets.
Cain emerged off the bench to provide instant offense, turning in 15 points in just 16 minutes of action. The 26-year-old has averaged 10.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 21.5 minutes across his past four games, and Cain could continue playing meaningful minutes from the second unit to close out a losing season for the Pelicans.

Pelicans' Jamal Cain: Pops for 11 from bench
Cain amassed 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and four steals across 27 minutes during Friday's 124-108 loss to the Lakers.
During his tenure with the Pelicans, Cain has been a non-factor, but he's one of a few developmental players who may see an extended run in the final week. After not catching on with the Heat, he's appeared in 32 games for New Orleans this season.
