The 76ers are on the rise again, and the Magic have felt it twice in three days, splitting 1\u20131. But what will hurt them most is the indefinite absence of at least a month for their leading scorer, Franz Wagner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Suns, for their part, remain without Durant<\/a>, an absence whose severity needs no explanation.<\/p>\n

Latest on the Magic: injuries and current form<\/h2>\n

Without Banchero or Wagner, there are two possibilities: The Magic turn their outstanding defense into an even more impenetrable fortress to win games, or someone from their versatile rotation emerges as an offensive leader to fill part of the scoring void left by Wagner, who has been their top scorer in eight of the last nine contests.<\/p>\n

The Suns, on the other hand, rank among the league\u2019s ten worst defenses, and without Nurkic or Durant, their weaknesses are even more evident. That\u2019s a breath of fresh air for an offense that can be a bit clunky, giving it room to operate.<\/p>\n

Player to Watch: Mo Wagner<\/h4>\n

With Banchero and Wagner out, expect offensively aggressive role players like Cole Anthony or rookie Tristan da Silva to step up and boost their stats. However, the real spotlight should be on the Suns\u2019 thin frontcourt and on Mo Wagner, one of the most efficient big men in the league at maximizing his points per minute, helping make the Magic backcourt the most efficient in the NBA.<\/p>\n
