Magic's Evan Fournier: Will play Saturday vs. Pacers

Fournier (wrist) will play Saturday against the Pacers, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Fournier missed Thursday's win over the Nets due to soreness in his right wrist, but the 24-year-old likely would have been able to play through the injury if the Magic had anything of significance at stake. After the game off to rest, it's expected that Fournier will take back his spot in the starting five from Jodie Meeks, but it wouldn't be surprising if coach Frank Vogel refrained from handing Fournier major minutes as the Magic play out the string in another losing season.
