Orlando Magic DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) will play on Saturday against the Pistons. The 24-year-old had been starting in place of Jalen Suggs (back). However, Anthony missed the last two games because of an illness, opening the door for Anthony Black to get a crack at the starting lineup. But with Suggs back in the equation and starting, Anthony will head back to the bench. Although Suggs should be limited in his first appearance after missing the last 10 games, Anthony's fantasy potential is much lower.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (back) will play on Saturday versus Detroit. The Magic recently welcomed back Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. But now the team will get back Suggs, who has averaged 16.4 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.5 steals this season, all career-highs. While he'll likely get eased back into the swing of things, at least for a few games, fantasy managers can get him back in their starting lineups. The potential for fewer minutes for Suggs should also keep Cole Anthony (illness), who is available, relevant for at least a few more contests.

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (back) has been upgraded to questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Suggs has missed the last 10 games as he has been sidelined for multiple weeks due to a back issue. The fact Suggs is being listed as questionable for Saturday gives some hope that he could return to the court. If that happens, Suggs would likely be under a minutes limit which would give him less appeal in DFS contests. Both Anthony Black and Cole Anthony (illness) have been playing bigger minutes with Suggs sidelined. Anthony is questionable as well for Saturday, so Black is looking like a popular fantasy option if both guards are unable to play.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The big man has missed each of the last five games due to a concussion. The fact that Bitadze is tagged as questionable gives some hope that he'll be able to return to the court here. If not, Wendell Carter Jr. figures to continue seeing big minutes in the rotation. Carter has played 30 minutes or more in four of the last five games. During that span, Carter has finished with a double-double in three of those contests. He's worth rostering with the Magic banged up at the center spot right now.

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Anthony has missed each of the last two games due to a lingering illness. The fact he's still listed as questionable means Anthony is in legitimate danger of missing a third straight game. Anthony Black has been playing big minutes for the Magic recently. In fact, Black has played 30 minutes or more in four of the last six games. Black is worth a look as a streaming option with the Magic banged up at the guard spot right now.
