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 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.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) won't play on Thursday against Portland. Anthony hasn't felt well, recently keeping him off the floor for Tuesday's loss to the Toronto Raptors. Anthony Black got the start in that one, finishing with 17 points, seven boards, and two steals. Black will likely start once again, giving him added value for fantasy managers. However, he could have a tough time being as productive with Franz Wagner (oblique) returning versus the Trail Blazers.
Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (illness) is questionable for Thursday's tilt against the Portland Trail Blazers. An illness may keep Anthony sidelined for a second consecutive game. Anthony has enjoyed a significant role on the team recently, averaging 15.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 4.1 assists. However, his influence is about to be reduced as Franz Wagner (oblique) is on the cusp of returning. If Anthony can't suit up on Thursday, Anthony Black will be in line for another start. The second-year player had a rough shooting night on Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors but still produced a decent fantasy line with 17 points, seven rebounds, two assists, and two steals.
Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Toronto. He has failed to shake off an illness ahead of the game. The Magic will start the game with Anthony Black at the point guard position, while Cory Joseph and Trevelin Queen could get extra burn off the bench. Black has played well as of late, averaging 11.6 points, 3.7 assists, and 1.1 steals for the month.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. Jonathan Isaac (illness) and Anthony were late additions to the injury report. In Anthony's last outing, he collected nine points, six rebounds, five assists, and two steals across 29 minutes on Sunday against Denver. The Magic's backcourt is already depleted, with Jalen Suggs (back) ruled out. Anthony Black will likely see an expanded role if Anthony is unavailable to suit up.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (ankle) is not spotted on the team's injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers. There was some doubt clouding Anthony's status on Monday, considering he tweaked his ankle in Sunday's victory over the visiting Miami Heat, but head coach Jamahl Mosley stated after the game that Anthony was "fine". The injury restricted Anthony to 16 minutes in the win, managing five points and six rebounds before going down, but he'll give it a go on the second part of Orlando's back-to-back set. The 23-year-old former UNC standout isn't the most consistent fantasy asset in his sixth-man role for the Magic, but he's looking at the possibility of increased run with Markelle Fultz (knee) sitting out on Monday. In 30 games without Fultz this season, Anthony is tallying 14.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per contest.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (thigh) is not listed on the team's injury report ahead of Friday's matchup versus the Miami Heat. Anthony aggravated an injury to his right thigh early that had previously bothered him in Tuesday's blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, but he will be available for the Magic on Friday. Markelle Fultz returned to Orlando's lineup on Jan. 7, so Anthony's minutes aren't going to be as steady for fantasy managers going forward. The 23-year-old former first-rounder's considerable rate of turnovers and lack of defensive contributions render him more valuable in points leagues, averaging 13.9 points, 3.4 assists, and 1.3 threes with 84.7% shooting from the foul line during his fourth campaign.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (quad) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This is great news after Anthony sat out Wednesday's double-overtime loss to the Sacramento Kings. There is no word of Anthony being limited, so the expectation is that he'll be fully ready to go. He could even see an expanded role with Gary Harris (calf) ruled out for Friday's game. Anthony Black should also remain in the mix, but Anthony is a much better streaming option.
Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (quad) has been downgraded to out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The young guard was a late addition to the injury report due to a right quad contusion. It's not shocking to see the Magic taking the cautious approach and holding him out of this game. Anthony Black and Gary Harris should both see an extended look with Anthony unable to play. Between the two, Harris has the higher upside due to his scoring ability.
