  • Magic's Anthony Black: Four dimes in Rising Stars event

    Black registered four points (2-5 FG) and four assists over 8:16 of court time in Team T's 40-34 loss to Team C.

    Black tied Team C's Stephon Castle and Dalton Knecht in assists in Friday's semifinal. Black's efforts weren't enough for Team T to advance to the Rising Stars final for a shot at a spot in Sunday's All-Star event. Black entered the All-Star break having scored at least 15 points in three of his last five outings, and he's had a larger role for the Magic due to the recent absence of Jalen Suggs (quadriceps). Black and the Magic will hit the road for their first game after the break against the Hawks on Thursday, Feb. 20.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Plays 34 minutes against Atlanta

    Black tallied six points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Monday's 112-106 loss to the Hawks.

    Black didn't exactly stuff the stat sheet Monday, but it was noticeable that he saw the floor far more than starting point guard Cole Anthony (15 minutes). Black was in the starting lineup in six of the Magic's 10 games prior to Monday's contest, and he could be in line for extended playing time (starting or off the bench) against the Hornets on Wednesday, especially if Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) is not able to play.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Pops for 20 points in win

    Black notched 20 points (8-9 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals over 27 minutes during Saturday's 112-111 victory over San Antonio.

    Black tallied at least 20 points for the third time this season, posting arguably his best performance in almost two months. With Jalen Suggs sidelined due to a quadriceps injury, both Black and Cole Anthony have been able to churn out encouraging numbers. Despite still coming off the bench, Black should continue to do a lot of the ball handling, especially when running the second unit.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Retreats to bench vs. Sacramento

    Black will come off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Kings.

    After going scoreless in Monday's start against the Warriors, Black will cede his place in Orlando's starting lineup to Cole Anthony. Through 38 appearances from the Magic's bench, Black has averaged 9.0 points, 3.6 assists, 2.6 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 0.6 blocks in 24.1 minutes, so he should still receive substantial minutes in the absence of Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) against Sacramento.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Records five steals

    Black registered 14 points (6-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, three assists, one block and five steals over 42 minutes during Monday's 125-119 double-overtime loss to the Heat.

    Black recorded a career-high five steals in an impressive all-around performance for the second-year guard. It's worth noting, however, that Jalen Suggs (back) could be cleared to return any day now, and that could limit Black's upside going forward. In 11 January outings, Black produced averages of 11.7 points, 3.5 assists, 2.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 0.6 three-pointers in 28.2 minutes.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Back in starting five Monday

    Black will start in Monday's matchup against the Heat, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

    With Jalen Suggs sidelined due to a left quad contusion, Black will step back into the starting lineup. The 21-year-old has started in five outings this season, during which he has averaged 11.0 points, 3.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 28.4 minutes per contest.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Back to bench Saturday

    Black is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

    The Magic will feature Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs (back) together for the first time since Oct. 30, and for just the sixth time this season, as Suggs will be back in the backcourt. Black should see decent minutes off the bench, though. He's averaging 25.7 minutes per game in seven outings off the bench in January.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Plays well as starter

    Black chipped in 17 points (6-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 109-93 loss to the Raptors.

    Black was impressive in his fill-in start for Orlando with Cole Anthony sidelined by an illness. The second-year guard now has four starts to his name this season with averages of 10.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 three-pointers.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Starting Tuesday

    Black will start Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

    With Jalen Suggs (back) and Cole Anthony (illness) out Tuesday, Black will get the starting nod at point guard for the Magic. Black has averaged 8.7 points, 3.3 assists and 2.0 rebounds in three starting appearances this season.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Shines off bench in defeat

    Black supplied 14 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), one rebound, five assists, one block and two steals in 28 minutes during Sunday's 113-100 loss to Denver.

    Black provided a nice lift off the Magic bench in Sunday's outing, leading all second-unit players in scoring while handing out a team-high-tying assist total and securing a pair of steals defensively. Black has posted at least 10 points and five dimes on eight occasions this season while now having tallied 14 or more points in eight contests.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Stuffs stat sheet in win

    Black logged 16 points (7-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 102-99 win over the 76ers.

    Black has shown flashes of brilliance this season, and Sunday was one of those nights for the second-year guard. He contributed across the board, which should please fantasy managers who played him in category leagues. However, Black is certainly benefitting from starter Jalen Suggs (back) being out, and even then, his production has been somewhat hard to trust during Suggs' absence. He'll look to keep rolling Wednesday against the Bucks.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Plays 26 minutes in return

    Black (back) tallied nine points (1-5 FG, 7-8 FT), five assists, two steals and one rebound across 26 minutes Monday in the Magic's 103-94 win over the Knicks.

    Black made his return in a bench role after missing the Magic's previous four contests with a low back contusion. He's been active in getting to the free-throw line over his last two appearances and has converted 12 of his 13 attempts overall between those contests, but the second-year guard's low usage rate and typically poor shooting from the field limits his overall fantasy appeal. Black will likely lose out on some playing time if the Magic get at least one of Jalen Suggs (back), Paolo Banchero (oblique) or Gary Harris (hamstring) back for their next game Thursday versus the TImberwolves.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Not on injury report

    Black (back) is available for Monday's game against the Knicks.

    Black was also available Sunday against the Jazz, but he never saw the floor. Whether or not he receives any playing time remains to be seen, but the guard does not appear on the injury report.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Goes unused Sunday

    Black (back) was active but didn't play during Sunday's 105-92 loss to Utah. "We're going to have to look at some more time, some more pregame reps to be able to look at it the right way," head coach Jamahl Mosley told Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel after the game, when asked about the condition of Black's back.

    Black ended up missing his fourth straight game with a low back contusion, and with Jalen Suggs (back) also sidelined, the Magic relied heavily on Cole Anthony (28 minutes), Trevelin Queen (25 minutes) and Cory Joseph (15 minutes) as their primary facilitators. The Magic may have been looking to preserve Black for the second leg of the back-to-back set Monday in New York, but the second-year guard should still be viewed as questionable for that contest, given Mosley's comments.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Coming off bench in return

    Black is not in the Magic's starting lineup against the Jazz on Monday.

    Black was in Orlando's starting five Dec. 27 against New York. Despite Jalen Suggs (back) being ruled out for Sunday's game, Black will come off the bench following a three-game absence due to a back contusion while Cole Anthony gets his first start of the 2024-25 regular season.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Will play against Utah

    Black (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Jazz.

    Black will return Sunday from a four-game absence due to a back contusion. He'll likely be inserted into the starting lineup due to Jalen Suggs (back) and Gary Harris (hamstring) being ruled out. In the 10 games prior to his injury, Black averaged 9.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 0.9 steals over 24.2 minutes per contest.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Iffy for Sunday

    Black (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Jazz.

    Black is in danger of missing his fourth straight contest Sunday due to a back contusion. With Jalen Suggs (back) and Gary Harris (hamstring) already ruled out against Utah, Cole Anthony and Cory Joseph could receive increased playing time.

  • Magic's Anthony Black: Won't play against Toronto

    Black (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Black will miss a third straight game due to a back injury, and his next opportunity to play will be against the Jazz on Sunday. Gary Harris, Jett Howard, Trevelin Queen and Caleb Houstan will continue to see extended playing time off the bench for as long as Black is sidelined.
