The Orlando Magic listed seven players on the injury report ahead of their game against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. The concerns about Paolo Banchero remained as the star forward was once again ruled out, while there was a significant change in Jalen Suggs' status.

Banchero is nursing a left groin strain and will miss his third consecutive game. The uber-versatile wing suffered the injury on November 12 when the Magic recorded a fantastic 124-107 win against the New York Knicks. In two games without Banchero, Orlando won one contest against the Brooklyn Nets while suffering an agonizing 117-113 overtime loss against the Houston Rockets.

Jalen Suggs is listed as questionable after he missed the previous game due to a sore right groin. A final confirmation of his status will be announced when coach Jamahl Mosley addresses the pregame presser. Meanwhile, Franz Wagner is available to play, but will continue to wear a face mask after recently breaking his nose.
