Jennings has been ruled out of Saturday's matchup with the Trail Blazers due to a Achilles soreness.

Analysis:

The severity of the injury is still relatively unknown but considering it's only soreness in the Achilles, Jennings may be able to return to the court as soon as Tuesday. Elfrid Payton (elbow) is a game-time call and if ruled out, the Magic will be thin at point guard, with C.J. Watson the likely candidate to start. Shabazz Napier could see extended minutes off the bench.
