Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers with a left knee strain. The 25-year-old has had a difficult season, playing in just 27 of the team's 64 games because of injury woes. Fultz tweaked his knee in Friday's game against the New York Knicks and has had issues with it throughout the season. Orlando's starting point guard, Jalen Suggs (thigh), is also listed as questionable to add more concern for Sunday's game. Cole Anthony, Gary Harris, and Anthony Black are the key Magic players to get increased time and usage if Fultz is forced to miss the game.
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Magic will keep Fultz out on the first leg of their back-to-back as injury maintenance for his troublesome left knee, but the talented guard should be back out there for Wednesday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. Following a three-game absence, Fultz has played from Orlando's bench in his latest four appearances, providing 9.5 points on 55.2% shooting from the field, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 17.7 minutes per contest. Cole Anthony should see an uptick in minutes as a boom-or-bust fantasy option against a Hornets team that holds the third-worst defensive efficiency rating (117.1) in the league, and through his past 10 showings, he's averaging 10.6 points, 4.2 boards, 2.9 dimes, and 1.0 three-pointers during 22.1 minutes per contest.
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The 25-year-old is dealing with a left knee injury, the knee that kept him out of 35 games just one season ago. If Fultz is unavailable, Cole Anthony is a viable option in fantasy play, as he has averaged 11.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.1 assists in 60 contests in this year's campaign. Anthony has played particularly well when Fultz has been unavailable.
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) remains out for Saturday's showdown with the Detroit Pistons. The 25-year-old will now miss his second consecutive game because of his nagging left knee injury, the same one that's him kept off the floor for 35 games throughout the 2023-24 campaign. Of course, Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are Orlando's top offensive options. But Cole Anthony has averaged 14.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.8 assists this season when Fultz doesn't play, so he's worth adding to all fantasy lineups.
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out of the Saturday matchup against the Detroit Pistons. He hasn't been able to play in either one of the last two games for the Magic and he'll miss a third as he's being held out for injury maintenance reasons on his left knee. Fultz has only appeared in 21 games so far this year which is unfortunate after it seemed like he turned a corner last season when he was able to play in 60 games. With health factoring in, the 25-year-old seems to be falling out of favor in Orlando, so fantasy managers are better off looking elsewhere for the long term. As he's sidelined, Gary Harris, Jalen Suggs, and Anthony Black should continue to see most of the opportunities in the backcourt.
