Vucevic (groin) remains questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Nets, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Vucevic hasn't played in nearly a calendar month while battling a strained groin, but he was back at practice Monday. Coach Scott Skiles was quick to note, however, that Vucevic has yet to do any contact work, which may not bode well for his chances of playing Tuesday. Still, the Magic will wait to evaluate Vucevic at shootaround, after which an update on his status should be available. If Vucevic is cleared to play Tuesday, he figures to reclaim his starting center spot from Dewayne Dedmon, though his minutes would likely be limited.
