Jalen Suggs Injury Update: Magic Guard Helped Off After Apparent Non-Contact Knee Injury

A sports doctor said the injury could sideline Suggs for months if it is a hyperextension, or end his season if it is an ACL tear.

  • On Sunday, Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs suffered a non-contact right knee injury during the fourth quarter of the team's 111-102 victory over the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
  • Orlando's roster faces significant pressure, as star forward Paolo Banchero is already sidelined for several weeks with a high ankle sprain suffered in the previous game.
  • Suggs sustained the apparent injury with 2:09 remaining while attempting a fastbreak layup, having played 34 minutes with six rebounds and six assists before his right knee buckled.
  • Sports doctor Evan Jeffries identified potential ACL damage or hyperextension, while Magic head coach Sean Sweeney said the team will re-evaluate Suggs on Monday morning.
  • With the 1-2 Magic needing to adjust, backup guard Anthony Black is expected to start alongside Bane for upcoming games against the Raptors and Boston Celtics.
