Orlando will be without the Wagner brothers plus Jalen Suggs, who's recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery he underwent in March. Don't expect Erik Spoelstra to play his starters heavy minutes. But expect plenty of on-ball reps from Nikola Jovic - the team's de-facto point guard - in addition to Jaime Jaquez Jr., Norman Powell and Andrew Wiggins, when they're on the floor."
