With what projects to be a wide-open East, the Magic are firmly in the mix, and Jalen Suggs will be the x-factor that determines how far they go in the postseason.

Injuries have unfortunately been the story for Suggs through the first four seasons of his career, and he's only played 75+ games once, which came during the 2023-24 season. For context, Suggs has only appeared in 211 of 328 (64.3%) of regular-season games since entering the league.

Last season, Suggs only appeared in 35 games and averaged 16.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and shot an underwhelming 41.
