Shooting woes continue
Suggs chipped in 16 points (6-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 133-124 win over the Heat.
Analysis
Suggs not only scored in double digits for the first time since returning from injury -- and for the first time since Jan. 2 -- but he also reached the 15-point threshold for the first time since Dec. 13. Even though this game was a step in the right direction, Suggs continues to struggle from an efficiency perspective. He's shooting a mere 32.4 percent from the floor in his three outings since returning from his latest injury, a knee issue that caused him to miss eight games between Jan. 4 and Jan. 22.

Dreadful shooting display Monday
Suggs posted four points (2-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt), six assists, five rebounds, two steals and one block over 27 minutes during the Magic's 114-98 loss to the Cavaliers on Monday.
Analysis
Suggs led the Magic in assists Monday, but the fifth-year point guard struggled mightily from the field during the loss. Part of that disjointed shooting effort could be due to the fact that Suggs has missed 15 of the Magic's last 19 games due to hip and knee injuries, so more consistent playing time moving forward should help with his rhythm.

Hands out six assists in return
Suggs (knee) chipped in nine points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists and one rebound across 24 minutes in Saturday's 119-105 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analysis
Suggs looked sharp in his return from an eight-game absence due to a right knee MCL contusion, bringing added playmaking and gritty defense to the Magic's first unit. While he's missed extensive time this season, Suggs has still been highly productive on a per-game basis, averaging 14.8 points, 4.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds, 1.9 three-pointers, 1.8 steals and 0.5 blocks in 25.3 minutes while shooting 47.1 percent from the field and 86.1 percent from the charity stripe.

Starting in return
Suggs is part of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Cleveland.
Analysis
Suggs is coming off an eight-game absence due to an MCL contusion, but the guard will reclaim his spot in the starting lineup. He's averaging 25.4 minutes per game this season, and it looks like he'll have little (or no) limitations Saturday.

Officially cleared to play
Suggs (knee) is available for Saturday's game against Cleveland.
Analysis
Suggs will make his return from an eight-game absence due to a right knee MCL contusion. The 24-year-old guard has started in all 23 appearances this season, averaging 15.0 points, 4.7 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.9 steals across 25.4 minutes. However, he could have his minutes monitored after missing multiple weeks of action.

Expected to play Saturday
Suggs is probable for Saturday's game against Cleveland with a right knee MCL contusion.
Analysis
Suggs is on the cusp of ending an eight-game absence with the issue. It's possible the guard will have a minutes restriction and perhaps even come off the bench in his expected return, though Suggs' presence figures to eat into the playing time of Anthony Black at point guard. Over his last 10 appearances, Suggs has averaged 15.9 points, 4.7 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 2.3 steals in 27.3 minutes per game.
