What happened: Orlando announced the imaging results and two-week evaluation timeline on Monday after Suggs went down grabbing his right knee on a non-contact play during Sunday's game. He did not return to that contest after exiting.

Why it matters: Ruling out additional structural damage spares the Magic backcourt a longer-term absence early in the regular season. Orlando will manage its guard rotation without Suggs until the medical staff conducts the scheduled follow-up exam.

What to watch: Magic medical staff will reassess Suggs' right knee in two weeks to establish his return-to-court progression.
