The Orlando Magic and Charlotte Hornets are set to square off in a Southeast division battle Monday night. Tipoff is 7 p.m. ET inside the Spectrum Center.

Orlando enters having won eight of its last nine games, including a low-stress 111-100 win over the visiting Detroit Pistons Saturday night.

He was on the court today,” Magic coach Jamahl Mosley said Saturday before his team’s contest with Detroit.

“He’s gone through some pretty, pretty strenuous workouts, so we’re going to continue to see how he responds to those and we’ll go from there.”

After leaving the contest versus the Pistons with a sore left hamstring and missing the second half, guard Jalen Suggs is not listed on the team’s injury report, presuming he’s available for Orlando vs. Charlotte.

Bridges is currently in a week-long period before re-evaluation after re-aggravating a bone bruise during the Hornets’ Tuesday night game with Brooklyn.

Richards and Mark Williams have both resumed team and group activities, but are not yet ready for a return.

Mann has dealt with low back soreness off and on, missing the last contest with the Magic on Nov. 12 due to the same nagging injury.

Williams shot 43.9% from the field this season, while averaging 10.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 29.9 minutes of play through the first 16 games.

The 10.4 points per game is a career high for the sixth-year player, who was a first-round pick for the Boston Celtics in the 2019 NBA draft.
