The Magic went 7-13 without Franz Wagner, who played the expected 24 minutes on Thursday. Orlando also lost center Moritz Wagner, Franz’s older brother, to a season-ending knee injury, and Suggs, who missed his 10th game with a lower back strain.

Banchero, Wagner and Suggs collectively made eight consecutive shots without a miss in a 20-4 run to break open a tight game. Wagner, 1-for-12 from the field through the first three quarters, made nine of 10 shots in the final period for 25 points.

Wagner was playing at an All-NBA level before he tore his right oblique on Dec. 6. Before Orlando's loss in Milwaukee on Wednesday, the team changed his status on the injury repor

Franz Wagner reflects on his return as the Magic fall 101-79 to the Trail Blazers, extending their losing streak to five games.

Franz Wagner scored 25 of his 32 points in the fourth quarter, Paolo Banchero had 32 points, nine rebounds and seven assists, and the Orlando Magic snapped a five-game losing streak by beating the Detroit Pistons 121-113.

Franz Wagner’s Jan. 25 performance against the Detroit Pistons is forever etched into the Orlando Magic’s history books. With a 25-point fourth quarter, the budding superstar tied Tracy McGrady’s franchise record for most points in a single quarter.
