Magic's Evan Fournier: Returning to starting lineup

Fournier will start at shooting guard Wednesday against the Pacers, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Fournier returned to action Monday against the Timberwolves in a bench capacity following an eight-game absence due to soreness in his right foot. The Magic eased him back in with a 23-minute workload, and Fournier provided nine points, two assists and one rebound. With the Frenchman experiencing no setbacks in the contest, he'll assume his typical role on the top unit Wednesday and likely for the foreseeable future, while C.J. Watson settles into a more permanent reserve role.
