Magic's Jett Howard: Iffy for Sunday

Magic's Jett Howard: Upgraded to questionable
Howard (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.

Magic's Jett Howard: Doubtful for Wednesday
Howard (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Howard is likely to miss his second straight contest, but he was able to go through a non-contact practice Tuesday. Cory Joseph and Trevelin Queen are candidates for extra minutes in Howard's absence, especially with Jalen Suggs (back) sidelined indefinitely.

Magic's Jett Howard: Sidelined Sunday
Howard (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Howard sustained the left ankle sprain during Friday's loss to the Bucks, and his next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Bucks. The 21-year-old has received inconsistent run this season, though he has seen an uptick in playing time due to Jalen Suggs (back) being sidelined. Caleb Houstan and Anthony Black are candidates for a bump in minutes with both Howard and Suggs sidelined.

Magic's Jett Howard: Iffy for Sunday
Howard (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Howard left Friday's game against the Bucks early and has since been diagnosed with a left ankle sprain. With Orlando getting Paolo Banchero back from injury, Howard will find minutes hard to come by going forward.

Magic's Jett Howard: Leaves Friday's game early
Howard did not return to Friday's 109-106 loss to the Bucks due to a left ankle sprain. He finished with zero points and one assist over seven minutes.
Howard sprained his ankle late in the third quarter and ended up missing the final 12 minutes of the contest, even though Orlando never formally ruled him out. The injury puts the second-year forward at risk of missing Sunday's game against the 76ers. Howard had played at least 15 minutes off the bench in four of his last five outings prior to Friday's contest, but he could be at risk of falling out of the rotation once either or both of Gary Harris (hamstring) and Jalen Suggs (back) return to action.

Magic's Jett Howard: Exits game due to ankle injury
Howard (ankle) is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Bucks, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.
Howard sprained his left ankle late in the third quarter, and after limping to the bench he eventually went to the locker room. Caleb Houstan would be in line to absorb Howard's minutes if the latter is unable to return to Friday's game.

Magic's Jett Howard: Another strong performance
Howard ended with 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-9 3Pt), eight rebounds and four assists across 23 minutes during Thursday's 104-89 loss to the Timberwolves.
Howard has stepped up with more minutes on the floor for the Magic. The 21-year-old has played well in the last three games, scoring 40 points combined with 11 rebounds and eight assists during that span. However, Howard's playing time will likely take a hit soon, as Paolo Banchero (oblique) is nearing a return to game action.

Magic's Jett Howard: Scores career-high 21 points
Howard registered 21 points (7-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 25 minutes during Sunday's 105-92 loss to the Jazz.
Howard scored in double digits for the first time this season, but it was the first time in his career he surpassed the 20-point plateau. Howard might be in line to see more minutes while the Magic remain depleted, but he'll have to prove Sunday's outing wasn't an outlier.

Magic's Jett Howard: Held without a point
Howard totaled zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 12 minutes during Sunday's 102-101 win over the Nets.
Howard reached double-digit minutes for the first time since Dec. 21 after Jalen Suggs left the game early with a wrist sprain, but he couldn't take advantage of his newfound minutes. Howard has scored a combined four points in his last three outings and is off the fantasy radar in most formats.

Magic's Jett Howard: Pops for 10 points Tuesday
Howard finished Tuesday's 114-109 loss to Milwaukee with 10 points (3-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and one assist across 12 minutes.
Howard scored double-digit points for just the fourth time this season, a campaign during which he has thus far failed to produce many highlights. Even with Orlando's two best players sidelined, Howard has been unable to step into a consistent role. The Magic are in a tough position, being a team that wants to develop their young players but also wants to win as many games as possible.

Magic's Jett Howard: Muted role continues
Howard provided eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal over 16 minutes during Friday's 123-100 win over the Nets.
Howard continues to play a limited role off the bench, having exceeded 20 minutes only once this season. Although he is supposedly one of the better perimeter threats on this Magic roster, they are doing just fine with him playing a minimal role. At this point, it appears he will struggle to feature prominently as long as the roster is relatively healthy.

Magic's Jett Howard: Efficient in limited time Saturday
Howard closed Saturday's 124-111 loss to the Grizzlies with 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt) and two rebounds over 12 minutes.
The 21-year-old was impressive in his limited run off the bench while serving as Franz Wagner's primary backup. Howard likely won't be a relevant option in fantasy formats, though his play Saturday could lead to an uptick in playing time alongside Anthony Black and Cole Anthony in the second unit.

Magic's Jett Howard: Drops 19 points in start
Howard logged 19 points (6-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three assists and two steals across 29 minutes of Wednesday's 107-97 preseason loss to the Spurs.
Orlando gave Howard an extended look Wednesday, and he delivered a game-high 19 points on 60 percent shooting. Howard spent most of the 2023 campaign in the G League, appearing in merely 18 NBA games and averaging 3.7 minutes per contest. Not many opportunities have opened for Howard entering Year 2, but he could push for a spot in the rotation if he continues to perform well.

Magic's Jett Howard: Starting nod Wednesday
Howard is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against San Antonio.
Howard delivered five points (2-8 FG) and three rebounds in 12 minutes during Orlando's preseason opener, so the second-year swingman will look to build on that performance. He is joined by Jalen Suggs in Orlando's starting backcourt Wednesday.

Magic's Jett Howard: Orlando picks up option
Orlando exercised its third-year team option for the 2025-26 season on Howard's contract Friday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Howard will likely return to the Magic next year after the club extended him for his third season. The 21-year-old rarely saw the floor in his rookie season, during which he averaged 1.6 points across 3.7 minutes per game in 18 regular-season appearances. Howard will likely struggle to find consistent minutes once again, buried behind Anthony Black, Caleb Houstan and Gary Harris on the bench.
