4 years agoOrlando Magic forward/center Khem Birch (illness) is questionable Saturday against the Utah Jazz. Birch only lasted five minutes on Thursday before leaving with a non-COVID illness. It is unclear what symptoms he is experiencing, but they were enough for Birch to leave the game. Wendell Carter Jr. took over and produced 21 points and 11 rebounds in the overtime victory. Carter has the most upside of the Orlando centers and would likely see the starting lineup if Birch is forced to miss time. Mo Bamba would also see more minutes, but it is unclear if he would see more than 20 minutes in the backup center role.--Dale Johnson - RotoBaller
