For Orlando, it's wait-and-see mode for Jalen Suggs injury. You hope for the best here. If he's out for a while, that means big opportunity for Jase Richardson and even more opportunity for Tristan da Silva. Jamal Cain will play more too, and maybe some Jevon Carter minutes.

Tristan da Silva came off the bench and shot whenever he touched the ball; he and Desmond Bane shot with no hesitation. A host thinks the old shot profile under Mosley (a prior coach) may have been the problem, while noting this is one game of evidence.
