Magic's Wagner Injury, Knicks' Rebounding Win
Update: 2025-12-07
Description
In a Sunday matchup, the New York Knicks defeated the Orlando Magic, but the game was overshadowed by an injury to Magic forward Franz Wagner. Wagner suffered a left knee injury and was unable to put weight on his leg, raising concerns for the Magic who have seen key players sidelined with lower-body injuries in consecutive seasons. The loss of Wagner significantly impacted the Magics offense, as they struggled to find a rhythm and shoot only thirty-eight point three percent from the field. The Knicks capitalized on their strength in offensive rebounding, grabbing fifteen offensive boards, contributing to their victory. The Magics margin for error is already thin, and losing a key player like Wagner, who is also one of their best defensive rebounders, makes it even more challenging for them to compete at a high level.
