Cain exited Monday's 123-107 win over the Pistons in the second quarter due to a left calf contusion and did not return, finishing with three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 11 minutes.
The Scoop: Cain checked out with 8:29 remaining in the second quarter and never checked back in after being deemed doubtful to return. He can be considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves until Orlando offers an update on his status.

Carter (neck) didn't return to Monday's game against the Pistons. He finished the night with 12 points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 18 minutes.
The Scoop: The timing of this injury is unfortunate for Carter and the Magic, who have three regular-season matchups remaining before gearing up for the playoffs. The team will presumably re-evaluate the 26-year-old Tuesday to determine his status for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Wembanyama won't return to Monday's game against the 76ers due to a left rib contusion, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports. He'll finish with 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, three blocks and one assist across 16 minutes.
The Scoop: Wembanyama exited to the locker room in the second quarter with what initially appeared to be an arm injury, but he returned to the hardwood shortly thereafter. However, the star big man didn't start the second half and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game. Luke Kornet should help pick up the slack the rest of the way.
