Anthony Black

ORL Guard #0

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Anthony Black finished Sunday’s loss to the Pistons with 11 points (4-of-12 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, one assist and five steals.

Like many of his teammates on Sunday, Black struggled to efficiently put the ball in the basket — his 0-of-4 shooting from beyond the arc being a major reason. Yet, the third-year guard had several positive moments on the defensive end, as reflected in the five steals he collected. He never consistently put together strong performances in the opening-round loss. However, Black took notable steps forward from a production standpoint during the regular season. He’ll have fantasy value next season.
Desmond Bane

ORL Guard #3

Desmond Bane logged 16 points (5-of-10 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), three rebounds, three assists, two steals, one block and three three-pointers in Sunday’s loss to the Pistons.

Bane was one of the better Magic performers on Sunday, despite his counting stats not jumping off the page. On efficient shooting and solid production from the three-point line, he finished as Orlando’s second leading scorer and was one of only four players to reach double figures. Bane finished the series averaging fewer points per game and a much lower field goal percentage than he did during the regular season. His fantasy production dipped a bit during the 2025-26 campaign, but he should still be a reliable contributor next season.
Paolo Banchero

ORL Forward #5

Paolo Banchero tallied 38 points (14-of-25 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), nine rebounds, six assists, one block and four three-pointers in the loss to the Pistons on Sunday.

Banchero recovered from a rough Game 6 to nearly total 40 points on Sunday. He shot well from beyond the arc and was efficient inside the three-point line, while functioning as Orlando’s best rebounder and playmaker. Yet, the outstanding individual performance was not enough to extend the Magic’s season. As Banchero’s fourth NBA season ends, fantasy managers will hope that the former first-overall pick can put forth a more productive and consistent fifth season to bounce back from an unspectacular 2025-26.
Jonathan Isaac

ORL Forward #1

Jonathan Isaac (knee) is out for Sunday’s Game 7 against the Pistons.

Sidelined since March 12, Isaac will miss Sunday’s series decider due to a sprained left knee. His continued absence does not affect the Magic rotation.
Jonathan Isaac

ORL Forward #1

Jonathan Isaac (knee) is doubtful for Sunday’s Game 7 against the Pistons.

Isaac hasn’t played in over a month and that’s unlikely to change in Sunday’s Game 7 against the Pistons. His continued absence won’t significantly impact the Magic’s rotation.
Franz Wagner

ORL Forward #22

Franz Wagner (calf) is out for Game 7 against the Pistons on Sunday.

Wagner left Game 4 after playing 24 minutes with a calf injury and hasn’t played since. He’s now set to miss Game 7. The tides turned without him in the series as the Magic are in the process of blowing a 3-1 lead to the Pistons. Jamal Cain started Game 6 in Wagner’s place, but had just three points in 20 minutes while Anthony Black had eight points in 34 minutes off the bench.
Jalen Suggs

ORL Guard #4

Jalen Suggs recorded seven points (1-of-10 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Friday’s Game 6 loss to the Pistons.

Suggs wasn’t the only Magic player to struggle in Game 6, especially after halftime, but the point guard had a rough Friday night. Not only did he shoot 1-of-6 from beyond the arc, but Suggs racked up five turnovers. To top things off, he was seen grabbing his left hamstring late in the fourth quarter, so there may be another concern for the Magic heading into Sunday’s Game 7.
Desmond Bane

ORL Guard #3

Desmond Bane finished Friday’s Game 6 loss to the Pistons with 17 points (7-of-18 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, two steals and three three-pointers.

One of the stars in Orlando’s home wins in Games 3 and 4, Bane has shot a combined 13-of-33 from the field over the last two games. While that isn’t necessarily a terrible percentage, Orlando’s margin for error is slim with Franz Wagner (calf) unavailable. And with the Magic scoring a total of 19 points in the second half of Game 6, they head back to Detroit to play Game 7 in a series that they once led by a 3-1 margin. Bane will have to be at his best on Sunday if Orlando is to avoid elimination.
Paolo Banchero

ORL Forward #5

Paolo Banchero amassed 17 points (4-of-20 FGs, 9-of-12 FTs), 10 rebounds, six assists and two steals in Friday’s Game 6 loss to the Pistons.

After going off for 45 points in Game 5, Banchero had a miserable Game 6 as the Magic missed out on their second opportunity to close out the series. Missing all nine of his three-point attempts, the 6-foot-10 forward shot 4-of-20 from the field overall. A 9-of-12 night at the foul line resulted in Banchero producing a respectable point total, but there’s no denying that this was a bad effort from him. He and the Magic will look to redeem themselves in Game 7 on Sunday.
Jonathan Isaac

ORL Forward #1

Jonathan Isaac (knee) is out for Friday’s Game 6 against the Pistons.

Isaac has been out for over a month, giving the Magic more than enough time to adjust to his absence. Goga Bitadze will continue to serve as the backup center, and this may be a better matchup for him than Isaac because of the Pistons’ physicality.
