Suggs was one of five players ejected Friday against Minnesota.
Mo Bamba and Austin Rivers got into an altercation, which drew several other players into the madness. Fortunately for Suggs and his fantasy managers, he did not throw any punches and will likely avoid a suspension. He fared well in his 15 minutes, scoring 10 points with three assists, two rebounds, three steals and two three-pointers.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Career-high five steals off bench
Rotowire
Suggs logged 11 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists and career-high five steals in 26 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 105-94 loss to the 76ers.
It was a big night on the defensive end for Suggs, who had only five steals in his prior seven games combined. The second-year point guard has played 20 or more minutes in three straight games, the first time he's seen that kind of consistent workload since he injured his ankle in late November and ceded the starting role to Markelle Fultz. As yet, however, Suggs' production doesn't put him on the radar in shallowed fantasy formats.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Poor production continues in loss
Rotowire
Suggs supplied three points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, five assists and two steals in 17 minutes during Friday's 110-105 loss to Miami.
Suggs continues to work his way back from injury, playing a modest role off the bench once again. Despite potentially being a long-term starter for the Magic, they are playing it very carefully when it comes to easing him back. Until we see him playing at least 26 minutes, he can be left on waivers in all standard leagues.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Will play Friday
Rotowire
Coach Jamahl Mosley said Suggs (ankle) is "good to go" for Friday's game versus Utah, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Suggs has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday despite a right ankle injury. The second-year guard will continue to come off the bench, where he has averaged 6.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 14.0 minutes across his last four appearances.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Ups playing time in loss
Rotowire
Suggs finished Monday's 136-111 loss to the Kings with 14 points (4-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 24 minutes.
Suggs continues to work his way back from injury, logging 24 minutes in the loss. While his production was certainly not spectacular, we are seeing progression as opposed to regression. The Magic basically have a full complement of guards right now, making playing time hard to come by. While Suggs may very well be their long-term option alongside Markelle Fultz, it appears as though they are going to run with Gary Harris as the starter, at least for the time being. Until he affirms himself as the primary off-guard, Suggs should be viewed as a bit of a luxury stash, especially in highly competitive leagues.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Gets five minutes in return
Rotowire
Suggs (ankle) played five minutes off the bench and finished with two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt) in Thursday's 123-115 loss to the Grizzlies.
After Suggs sat out each of the Magic's previous 19 games with a sore right ankle, he was expected to handle only a light role Thursday, but he ended up having an even stricter limit than anticipated. Unless the Magic reveal that Suggs suffered a setback during his limited time on the court Thursday, expect his minutes to gradually ramp up over the course of the next several games. Once he's free of a restriction, Suggs could reclaim a spot in the Magic's starting backcourt next to Markelle Fultz.

Suggs was finally upgraded to questionable on the initial injury report for Thursday's contest after more than a month on the sideline, signaling that he may be ready for his return. That will indeed be the case, though head coach Jamahl Mosely indicated "not that long" when asked how much the second-year guard will play.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Could return Thursday
Rotowire
Suggs (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Grizzlies, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Coach Jamahl Moseley said there's a "possibility" Suggs suits up Thursday after missing the previous 18 games with an ankle injury. His questionable injury designation is a good sign, as it marks the first time over that stretch that he isn't initially listed as out. If Suggs can't play Thursday, his next opportunity to go is Saturday's matchup with Memphis.

Magic's Jalen Suggs: Fully participates in practice
Rotowire
Suggs (ankle) fully participated in Monday's practice session, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
Coach Jamahl Mosley didn't provide a timetable for Suggs' return following practice Monday, but it was encouraging to see the point guard back at practice after missing the last 17 games due to a sore right ankle. The team's medical staff will presumably examine how he responds to the practice session before targeting a specific date for him to return to game action.
