Nikola Vucevic 'on track' to return Thursday for Magic
Orlando Magic coach Frank Vogel said center Nikola Vucevic is "on track" to play Thursday, reports John Denton of OrlandoMagic.com.
Having been held out through the break, Vucevic has now missed 23 games and nearly two months after fracturing his left hand back in late December. He shouldn't be too limited in his return, so expect Bismack Biyombo and Marreese Speights to give up minutes in the frontcourt rotation. Though Biyombo's expected to get one final start before Vucevic takes his starting spot back.
Vucevic is projected to play 30.2 minutes and tally 38.5 FanDuel points in his return against the New York Knicks.
