Orlando Magic DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (toe) won't play on Monday versus the Lakers. He's battling a sprained toe, so he'll miss his third-straight game on Monday night. Cory Joseph, who had 11 points in the win over the Wizards on Friday, will presumably remain in the starting lineup. Anthony Black, who had 13 points, six assists, and one block in that one, should also see more work than usual. But Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero will likely handle most of the opportunities on the offensive end.

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (toe) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Lakers. The toe sprain is nothing new, although it most recently kept Anthony off the floor during Orlando's last two games. Cory Joseph got the start once again in Friday's win over the Washington Wizards, finishing the night with 11 points. Anthony Black also stayed more involved than usual, with the 21-year-old amassing 13 points, six assists, and one block. However, he had five turnovers. With that said, it should remain Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero handling most of the work on the offensive end, with both combining for 51 points versus Washington. The duo also collectively averaged a 35.5 usage percentage.

According to Josh Robbins of The Athletic, Orlando Magic guardCole Anthony(toe) won't suit up against the Washington Wizards on Friday. He has been battling a sprained toe that will keep him off the floor for a second straight game. Cory Joseph will likely start again in Anthony's place this evening. Joseph collected 12 points, six rebounds, and three assists in 30 minutes during Thursday's 113-93 victory over New Orleans. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, with Paolo Banchero andFranz Wagner still out, Joseph isn't a reliable option going into tonight's contest.
