Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris has been ruled out of the team's game against the Dallas Mavericks due to a right groin strain. This will be the second game that Harris has missed due to the injury. He has only played 20 or more minutes in a game once this season, so his absence shouldn't have a major impact on the rotation. Cole Anthony is expected to see some additional minutes off the bench, while Anthony Black and Jalen Suggs may also see increased playing time. There is a possibility that Markelle Fultz, who has been dealing with a knee injury, could see more action if he is cleared to play.

Harris has been an important contributor for the Magic this season, averaging 8 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in just under 18 minutes per game. He has also been shooting an impressive 50% from three-point range. The team will miss his solid defense and ability to space the floor. Coach Jamahl Mosley expressed his confidence in Harris, stating that he provides the defensive effort and shooting that the team needs.

It remains to be seen how long Harris will be sidelined with his groin injury, but the Magic will be hoping for a swift recovery so that he can return to the court.
