Twins Announce Byron Buxton News After Leaving Astros Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton has been among MLB's most electric players since his debut in 2015. With a unique combination of speed, defense and power, Buxton possesses some of the best tools in the game.

Having spent his entire 11-season career in Minnesota, the right-handed hitting outfielder owns a career .784 OPS with 144 home runs in 826 games. The problem for Buxton has been staying on the field.
Having played more than 100 games just two times in his MLB career, Buxton has been significantly plagued by injuries, limiting both his individual accolades and Minnesota's overall team success during his tenure.

In Saturday's contest against the Houston Astros, Buxton was hit by a 94.7 MPH sinker from Astros starting pitcher Hunter Brown. He proceeded to steal second base, but exited the game in the seventh inning defensively, being replaced by Harrison Bader.

There was understandable concern from Twins fans at the time of Buxton's exit, and an update has since been announced by the team. Per Betsy Helfand of Pioneer Press, the Twins announced Buxton was removed with a left elbow contusion.
Minnesota has been firmly in the American League Wild Card race for most of this season. While the Detroit Tigers have been running away with the AL Central, the Wild Card remains open.
A big part of Minnesota's success this season has been the ability of both Buxton and shortstop Carlos Correa to stay healthy. While third baseman Royce Lewis has continued his injury misfortune, both Buxton and Correa have remained mostly healthy.

Any extended absence from Buxton would leave a major hole for Minnesota.

Magic are landing Bane in trade with Grizzlies for Anthony, Caldwell-Pope and picks, AP source says
The Orlando Magic are acquiring Desmond Bane from Memphis in a deal that sends Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Cole Anthony and draft capital to the Grizzlies, a person with knowledge of the agreement said Sunday. Part of the package of picks going to Memphis are three of Orlando's future first-round picks, including the 16th selection in the draft set for later this month, according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal was still awaiting NBA approval. ESPN first reported the agreement. Bane averaged 19.2 points this season for the Grizzlies, plus he connected on 39% of his shots from 3-point range.
