Anthony Black

Black was exceptional on Wednesday evening against the Heat. Offensively, he shot the ball with great accuracy, leading him to finish as one of three Magic players to score at least 20 points. He added a handful of assists, as well, but also tallied six stocks on the defensive end to give him fantastic fantasy production in the win. Black's performance against Miami may be the one that gets him back on track following a few underwhelming performances.

Paolo Banchero had 31 points and 12 rebounds, Anthony Black scored 26 points and the Orlando Magic beat the Miami Heat 133-124 on Wednesday night to snap a four-game skid. Desmond Bane finished with 23 points on 10-of-16 shooting and Jalen Suggs scored 16 for the Magic, who are 3-0 against the Heat this season. Simone Fontecchio scored 23 points in 19 minutes for the Heat.

Wagner is set to miss his fourth consecutive game. The 24-year-old small forward is listed as out for high left ankle sprain injury management reasons. Anthony Black will continue to start and should be rostered in standard formats until Wagner returns.

Black had a fairly balanced performance in Monday's rematch with the Cavaliers. In 37 minutes, he was impactful on the defensive end and totaled four stocks, while inefficient shooting from beyond the arc limited his scoring production. Still, the third-year guard out of Arkansas finished as one of three Orlando players to score in double figures, and he was one of the team's best passers in the loss. Fantasy managers, however, should be craving more from Black, based on some of the heights he reached earlier this season.

Our Magic vs. Cavaliers predictions see tremendous value in backing an Anthony Black combo prop on Monday, January 26.
