Latest Injury Status

day-to-day

Wagner exited Friday's preseason finale due to right shoulder soreness and did not return. The severity of the issue is unclear, though the 25-year-old forward can be considered questionable for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Hawks. If he's forced to miss time, Anthony Black (ankle), Jamal Cain and Tristan da Silva would all be candidates for increased playing time.
