The Orlando Magic(1-2) face off against the Cleveland Cavaliers(2-1) Saturday afternoon for the fourth game of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Orlando is 100% healthy. All of their players will be available. Conversely, Cleveland is dealing with a few injuries. However, none of them are significant. All of the starters are fine, and their best bench players don’t have any injuries.
Will the healthy Orlando team get another big win, or can Cleveland gain a bigger lead on the series?
Orlando Magic vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Injury Report
Orlando Magic
| Players | Injury | Status |
| None | None | None |
The Orlando Magic have a healthy and strong team. It is full of young players who have helped revive this franchise. With no injuries they have a great chance of taking the win at home today. They have managed to stay on track all season which is one of the reasons they have played so well.
One thing is for sure, Orlando needs Paolo Banchero to remain healthy and be able to play throughout the whole playoffs. He’s leading the team in points, rebounds, and assists making him a key player. He can’t show up on the injury report or they could be in some hot water.
Updates:
Cleveland Cavaliers
| Players | Injury | Status |
| Craig Porter | Ankle | Out |
| Dean Wade | Knee | Out |
| Ty Jerome | Ankle | Out |
Cleveland is dealing with some minor injuries in this series. Though none of these players are big scorers, the team could use Dean Wade. He’s a solid rebounder who could provide on defense, which is something they lacked last game. Also, Wade had a big game against the Boston Celtics at the end of the season, scoring 23 points. The team could use that right now.
The Cavaliers got hit hard in game two. It isn’t due to the current injuries, though. They fell asleep on both offense and defense. However, if any of their starters go down, Orlando should be able to wrap this series up despite being down 1-2.
Updates:
Can Orlando Tie the Series?
In the first two games, Cleveland had the win locked down. They outplayed the younger Magic team very easily, and they probably should have gone up 3-0 in the series. Furthermore, they may have injured players, but they aren’t players that typically impact the game much.
If things play out like they did in game three, Orlando will have huge momentum going into the next one. If they can keep up the pace, this healthy team could cruise past the Cavs. However, one major injury and the Magic could be sent packing.
