The Magic took on the Knicks on Sunday in a matinee matchup at Madison Square Garden with most of the sports world focused on the College Football Playoff bracket reveal and Week 14 of the NFL season. Unfortunately it didn’t take long for disaster to strike for Orlando.
After building a small lead in the first quarter, young Magic star Franz Wagner ran out in transition along with teammate Anthony Black. Black tossed the ball up to Wagner to try and connect on an alley-oop. Wagner went up to catch the pass but got hit from behind by Knicks defender Ariel Hukporti. Wagner then landed awkwardly and immediately grabbed his knee in pain.
