Green has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Kings due to a sore right Achilles.

Analysis:

Green will join teammates Luke Ridnour and Evan Fournier in being ruled out of Friday's game, which leaves the Magic's backcourt short of depth. Consequently, starters Elfrid Payton and Victor Oladipo should receive plenty of playing time, with veteran Ben Gordon capable of spelling Oladipo at shooting guard off Orlando's bench.
