Evan Fournier is back on the shelf with foot problems.
The Orlando Magic shooting guard has a bruised right heel and will be out for the foreseeable future, according to Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel.
Fournier apparently re-aggravated a previous heel injury, which forced him to miss about two weeks around the new year. He suited up for five games upon returning, but indicated he's at just "60 percent," and will take more time off to recover from the pain.
The French swingman is averaging career highs in points (17), assists (3.3), and rebounds (3.1) this season for the 17-25 Magic.
Jodie Meeks started Saturday's loss to the Utah Jazz in place of Fournier, and figures to fill in for the time being.
