Scores nine points in return
Banchero (groin) amassed nine points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists in 20 minutes during Friday's 106-105 victory over the Heat.
Analyse
Banchero was a bit rusty in his first game back following a 10-game absence due to a left groin strain, but he hit some clutch shots down the stretch and finished with a plus-six differential in the win. He was limited to 20 minutes Friday, but Banchero should be cleared for more playing time Sunday in New York.

Will be limited Friday
Head coach Jamahl Mosley said Banchero (groin) will play on a minutes restriction in Friday's game against the Heat, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Analyse
Mosley did not specify how many minutes Banchero would be limited to following his 10-game absence due to a left groin strain, though the star forward will seemingly be eased back into action. Still, his return will likely mean fewer minutes for the likes of Tristan da Silva, Jett Howard and Noah Penda. In his first 11 regular-season appearances, Banchero averaged 23.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.6 steals-plus-blocks in 34.7 minutes per contest.

Will play Friday
Banchero (groin) is available for Friday's game against the Heat, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.
Analyse
Banchero will return to action Friday and make his first appearance since Nov. 12, likely sending Tristan da Silva to a bench role. In his first 11 games this season, Banchero averaged 23.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.6 steals-plus-blocks in 34.7 minutes. However, the superstar forward may face some restrictions during his first game in nearly a month.

Chance to return Friday
Banchero (groin) is questionable for Friday's game against the Heat, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Analyse
Banchero hasn't played since Nov. 12 and had been limited to non-contact work as of earlier this week, but it appears he's nearing a return to game action. Even if Banchero is cleared to play Friday, he'll likely face heavy restrictions. In his first 11 games this season, Banchero averaged 23.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.6 steals-plus-blocks in 34.7 minutes.

Out again Wednesday
Banchero (groin) will not play Wednesday against the Spurs.
Analyse
Banchero continues to be ruled out a day in advance of games and has yet to be cleared for contact. This will mark his 10th straight game on the shelf, and he remains without a timetable for a return. Coach Jamahl Mosley said Banchero is "still doing a lot of non-contact things" and they "continue to see and monitor how he responds to each treatment each day." It sounds like fantasy managers can treat Banchero as week-to-week until he ramps up activity during practice.

Ruled out for Monday
Banchero (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bulls.
Analyse
Banchero will miss his ninth consecutive contest due to a left groin strain, and there remains no concrete timetable for his return to action. He can be considered doubtful ahead of Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
