Orlando will have to navigate the NBA Playoffs against Detroit without their key player, Franz Wagner.
Basketball World Champion Franz Wagner will be absent for the Orlando Magic in the NBA’s decisive final playoff game against the Detroit Pistons. The NBA team announced this on Saturday, with Game 7 scheduled for Sunday at 9:30 PM CEST in Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena.
Wagner is sidelined with a calf strain in his right leg. He missed the previous two matchups, and it was precisely in these games that the series shifted in favor of the Pistons.
