DJ Augustin will be out of the lineup for up to four weeks (mid-February) with irritation to his knee bone.
Jonathan Isaac suffered a posterior lateral corner injury and a medial bone contusion to his left knee which will keep him off the court between eight and 10 weeks (mid-March).
Al-Farouq Aminu is healing from a torn meniscus which will keep him off the court until mid-April.

Free Orlando Magic vs. Charlotte Hornets NBA Prediction:
Charlotte is on a six-game losing streak and 12 losses in their last 14 games with two wins separating two six game losing streaks. In contrast, the Magic played the Suns to a close 94-98 loss then won back to back games versus the Kings and Lakers.
Their next two matches were losses to the Clippers and Warriors where the Magic could only produce 95 points in both matches. More concerning is Orlando lives off their defense but it was absent as well.
