Magic's Jett Howard: Iffy for Wednesday
Rotowire
Howard (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament game against the 76ers.
A left ankle sprain cost Howard the final five contests of the regular season, but the third-year forward has a chance to return Wednesday. If Howard cannot give it a go, Tristan da Silva would likely see an uptick in playing time in the frontcourt.

Magic's Jett Howard: Questionable to play Sunday
Rotowire
Howard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Celtics, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
Howard has missed the Magic's last four games while recovering from a left ankle sprain, but he could be available for Sunday's game. He served in a key rotational role off the bench, and in 22 outings since the All-Star break he has averaged 6.6 points, 2.0 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 1.1 threes over 16.1 minutes per game. If Howard is cleared to play against Boston, then there could be less minutes available for the likes of Anthony Black and Jamal Cain.

Magic's Jett Howard: Solid workload in overtime win
Rotowire
Howard supplied 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists over 20 minutes during Thursday's 136-131 overtime win over Washington.
Howard logged 20-plus minutes for a fourth straight game, a significant shift for a player who hadn't reached that mark in back-to-back outings at any other point this season. This sustained usage is a direct result of Franz Wagner (ankle) and Anthony Black (abdomen) being sidelined with no definitive timetable for a return. During this four-game span, Howard has averaged 10.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.3 assists while knocking down 1.8 triples per contest.

Magic's Jett Howard: Perfect from downtown in rout
Rotowire
Howard had 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-4 3Pt) and one block over 13 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 131-94 win over Sacramento.
It was the third-year wing's best scoring effort since he erupted for a surprising 30 points against the Celtics on Nov. 23. Howard's perfect night from beyond the arc was part of a stunning shooting performance by the Magic that saw them go 27-for-50 (54.0 percent) from long distance, with seven different Orlando players draining at least three treys. Howard is still trying to earn a consistent role in the rotation and has played double-digit minutes in just three of the last six games, failing to get on the court at all in one of them due to an ankle injury.

Rotowire
Howard provided two points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one assist and one steal in two minutes during Saturday's 120-117 victory over Utah.
Howard was a non-factor yet again, continuing what has been another frustrating campaign. Despite providing Orlando with a much-needed perimeter threat, Howard simply hasn't been able to carve out a meaningful role for himself. In 32 appearances this season, he has averaged just 4.8 points and 0.9 three-pointers in 10.6 minutes per game.

Magic's Jett Howard: Questionable to play Sunday
Rotowire
Howard (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies in London, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
The illness previously kept Howard from playing in Thursday's 118-111 win over the Grizzlies in Berlin. While Howard could be back in action for the second of the Magic's two games in Europe, he's unlikely to be included in the rotation even if he sheds his questionable tag.
