Franz Wagner returns Thursday in Berlin

Orlando Magic wing Franz Wagner is expected to return to the lineup Thursday, and the setting adds extra significance.

Orlando will face the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA Berlin Game, giving Wagner the chance to play in front of a home crowd in Germany.

His brother, Moritz Wagner, has also recently returned, meaning both siblings should be available.

Franz Wagner has been sidelined for more than a month after suffering a high ankle sprain against the New York Knicks.

Since then, Orlando has gradually moved closer to full health.

At this point, Jalen Suggs is the only regular rotation player still unavailable for the Magic.
