Vucevic, who was scratched from Friday's game with a sore Achilles, said he's not sure how or when he sustained the injury, and it's unclear, if he'll miss any further games, the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Analysis:

Coach Jacque Vaughn said the team was being cautious with Vucevic, but of course there's speculation that his absence is related to the Magic's push for a bottom three record in the league for draft lottery purposes, so the severity of his injury could be moot. Still, owners will want to monitor his status leading up to Saturday's 7 PM ET tipoff against the T-Wolves and should consider him day-to-day.
