Overview
- President Jeff Weltman said the team is targeting opening night for Jalen Suggs after significant progress in his left knee cartilage recovery.
- Suggs is expected to participate in selected portions of training camp under high-performance director Arnie Kander’s guidance.
- The team hopes Suggs can log at least one appearance in the four-game preseason before the Oct. 22 home opener against the Heat.
- Weltman described Moritz Wagner’s ACL comeback as on a longer timetable, calling him “further away” with no specific return date yet.
- Wagner, more than nine months post-surgery, said he is focused on regaining full conditioning and will not return until the knee is fully right.
