    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Orlando Magic guard Keyon Dooling, who has been out with a bruised right heel since Oct. 18, said he will try to play Sunday. The Magic are home, facing the Cleveland Cavaliers.

    "Sunday, that's what I'm shooting for," Dooling said after Tuesday's shoot-around in Houston.

    Dooling, acquired this summer as a free agent, was expected to play a pivotal role as a defensive-minded point guard and shooting guard. "Yeah, it's been tough. . . . Not the way you want to start,'' Dooling said. "But I'm getting close."

    Kasun sees some time

    Magic reserve center Mario Kasun, who was been battling stress reaction in his right ankle, has been impressive in recent practices. Kasun saw his first action of the season against the Rockets.

    "It's a shame that Mario has been hurt because I think he really could help us," Coach Brian Hill said.

    Kasun is the biggest man on the roster at 7 feet 1, 260 pounds.

    He was injured during the European Championships, playing for Croatia. He has indicated that he might need surgery next offseason.</div>
