4 years agoOrlando Magic shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Portland due to a recurrence of back spasms. Fournier was a late scratch from the lineup Saturday due to the ailment, which allowed Dwayne Bacon to enter the starting five, a role that he is likely to reprise so long as Fournier is out of the mix. In the midst of yet another strong offensive campaign -- averaging 17.8 PPG -- Fournier has also tied his career best with 3.6 assists dished out on a nightly basis. His next chance at suiting up comes Thursday versus the Warriors.--Jesse Borek
