Moritz Wagner Out for Season with Torn ACL
Orlando Magic center Moritz Wagner has suffered a torn left ACL. This injury will keep him off the court for the rest of the 2024-25 season. Wagner’s knee injury began on December 21, 2024, and has been confirmed as a season-ending issue.
What It Means
This is a big loss for the Orlando Magic. Moritz Wagner was averaging 12.9 points per game this season. He also had 4.9 rebounds and shot 56.2% from the field. His performance included three streaks of scoring ten or more points in games.
The team will need to rely more on Wendell Carter Jr., who is currently ranked first at the center position for the Magic. With Wagner out, Carter Jr.’s role may increase significantly in upcoming games.
