The Orlando Magic's two star players were near the bottom of the Eastern Conference first returns for the All-Star Game. That is no surprise with how much the two have struggled and the injuries they have faced. It could leave the Magic without an All-Star for a second straight season.

The only way for either to get consideration is for them to return to form and for the Magic to climb the standings. Their schedule remains set for them to do so. The winning will come first, and then the individual rewards.

Getting there starts with getting healthy. Jalen Suggs was upgraded to QUESTIONABLE for Wednesday's game against Indiana. That will give the Magic a major boost. Orlando is at its best with Suggs on the floor and he can lift the team's overall energy completely.
