Orlando Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu, who has not played since being inadvertently hit with a Carmelo Anthony elbow on April 5, looks like he is going to play in Thursday’s season finale in Memphis and could even play Wednesday night when the Magic host the Charlotte Bobcats.
Hedo Turkoglu will have his mask adjusted today, and he sounds more optimistic he will play tomorrow instead of tonight.

Hedo Turkoglu could possibly play tonight for the #Magic vs the #Bobcats, SVG said. Bigger chance he’ll play 2moro.

Turkoglu, who has missed the last nine games, is averaging 10.7 points, 4.5 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game. He’s shooting just 41.1% from the field, the third-lowest number of his career.
