Anthony

Black

With Anthony Black joining Franz Wagner on the sidelines due to injury, da Silva returned to the Magic starting lineup on Wednesday. And the second-year forward took advantage of his latest opportunity, putting up 23 points on excellent percentages. Add in the rebounds and assists, and da Silva showed why he’s a must-roster player until Black or Wagner is healthy enough to return.

Black sustained the back injury in Saturday’s win over Minnesota, and he’ll be out indefinitely as a result. Until Black is cleared to get back on the court, Tristan da Silva should continue to take on an expanded role. The latter is worth an add off of the waiver wire.

Black will not play after exiting Saturday’s win over the Timberwolves during the first quarter with a lower back strain. Tristan da Silva will get a spot start after playing well off the bench on Saturday.

Black exited Saturday’s win over the Timberwolves during the first quarter after suffering a lower back strain. He was replaced in the lineup by Tristan da Silva, who would move into the starting five if Black can’t play in Milwaukee.

Having suffered a lower back strain during the first quarter, Black was officially ruled out at the start of the third quarter. Tristan da Silva has moved into the lineup to begin the second half and will likely be the starter if Black has to miss time.

Black suffered a lower back strain in the first quarter of Saturday’s game against the Timberwolves and is questionable to return. Tristan da Silva is likely to see additional minutes as long as Black is out.

Having returned to the Magic lineup after missing two games with a quad injury, Black logged 24 minutes against Dallas. The guard did struggle with his shot, missing all three of his three-point attempts and shooting 3-of-9 from two. However, Black provided some value in the assist and steal categories, so all wasn’t lost for fantasy managers who have him rostered.

Black is available after missing Orlando’s last two games. As a result of his return, Tristan da Silva will head to the bench, where his fantasy value takes a hit.

Black has missed Orlando’s last two games, which has allowed Tristan da Silva to start in his stead. If he returns to take on Dallas, da Silva will return to playing a role off the bench. He has started the last six games for Orlando due to Jalen Suggs’ absence as well, and he has averaged 11.0 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game during this stretch.

Downgraded from questionable to doubtful earlier Tuesday, Black is now officially out for a second consecutive game. Tristan da Silva should continue to serve as the fifth starter, which raises his fantasy ceiling.
