Practices in G League
The Magic recalled Wagner (ankle) from the G League's Osceola Magic after he practiced with the affiliate Monday.
Analysis
Wagner will remain out for Tuesday's game in Cleveland, but his assignment to the G League for practice represents the first notable sign of progress in the recovery process for the fifth-year forward since the Magic opted to shut him down over the All-Star break. The Magic haven't provided any details regarding the extent of Wagner's practice activity Monday, so until more information emerges on that front, his return to game action shouldn't be viewed as imminent. Wagner has played in just four games since he initially suffered a left high-ankle sprain in a Dec. 7 loss to the Knicks.

Listed out Tuesday
Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Cleveland.
Analysis
Wagner is in line for another absence while rehabbing from a left ankle sprain. The Magic haven't provided any indications that his return is imminent, so fantasy managers who have been holding him amid his extended absence shouldn't count on him being available for any of the team's remaining two games this week.
