Wendell Carter Jr.

ORL Center #34

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Wendell Carter Jr. (left foot plantar fasciitis) is questionable to play against Charlotte on Monday.

WCJ has missed their last 11 games, but there is a chance that he is back in the mix on Monday. If that happens, Goga Bitadze will be pushed to the bench and lose most of his streaming value, while Moritz Wagner will lose out on some minutes as well.
Jalen Suggs

ORL Point Guard #4

Jalen Suggs (left hamstring soreness) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against Charlotte.

Suggs exited early from their last game, but the injury won’t keep him out of the lineup on Monday. He’ll likely see his normal workload as a starter, which means no added boost for Anthony Black.
Moritz Wagner

ORL Power Forward #21

Moritz Wagner logged 28 minutes in Saturday’s win over Detroit, accumulating 18 points (7-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one 3-pointer.

While he wasn’t as prolific as his younger brother Franz, Moritz had a good night against the Pistons. The points were there, but so were the rebounds and assists, an encouraging development for a player ranked outside the top 175 over the last three weeks. Goga Bitadze (eight points, one rebound, one assist, one steal, and three blocks in 18 minutes) remains the preferred streamer with Wendell Carter Jr. sidelined, but Wagner is also of value in deep leagues.
Jonathan Isaac

ORL Power Forward #1

Jonathan Isaac amassed five points (1-of-6 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 12 rebounds, two steals, and three blocks in 23 minutes in Saturday’s win over Detroit.

Isaac has played at least 20 minutes in five of his last six games, with Saturday’s effort being his most productive. In addition to grabbing a season-high 12 rebounds, the Magic forward was responsible for three blocks and two steals. Isaac doesn’t need significant minutes to impact fantasy basketball, but the injury concerns remain.
Anthony Black

ORL Point Guard #0

Anthony Black finished Saturday’s win over the Pistons with 11 points (3-of-8 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), one rebound, five assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer in 32 minutes.

With Jalen Suggs exiting Saturday’s game during the first half with a sore hamstring, Black picked up additional minutes. He’s played 29 minutes or more in three of Orlando’s last four games, so the second-year guard’s playing time may not change much if Suggs misses time. Orlando plays four games in Week 6, beginning with Charlotte on Monday.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

ORL Shooting Guard #3

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope accounted for eight points (3-of-6 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), two assists, one steal, two blocks, and one 3-pointer in 24 minutes in Saturday’s win over Detroit.

After missing Thursday’s win over the Lakers, Caldwell-Pope was back in the lineup on Saturday. He didn’t offer much value, but the nature of the game had something to do with that. Orlando was up big by the end of the third quarter, so there was no need to push veteran like Caldwell-Pope. He remains little more than a deep-league option. The Magic play four games in Week 6, beginning with Charlotte on Monday.
Franz Wagner

ORL Small Forward #22

Franz Wagner shot 11-of-22 from the field and 4-of-4 from the foul line in Saturday’s win over the Pistons, tallying 30 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, two steals, and four 3-pointers in 29 minutes.

Wagner continues to flourish with Paolo Banchero sidelined, surpassing the 30-point mark for the fifth time in seven games. Franz provides top-20 per-game value for the season in 8- and 9-cat formats. While the production may take a hit once Banchero returns, managers who have Wagner rostered should just enjoy the ride.
Jalen Suggs

ORL Point Guard #4

Jalen Suggs (left hamstring soreness) is unlikely to return to Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Suggs played nine minutes before the sore hamstring hastened his exit. While Cole Anthony can slide into the rotation if Suggs misses time, Anthony Black is the player managers should target first.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope

ORL Shooting Guard #3

Jalen Suggs, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Franz Wagner, Tristan da Silva, and Goga Bitadze will start Saturday’s game against the Pistons.

Caldwell-Pope is back after sitting out Thursday’s win over the Lakers for personal reasons. As a result, Gary Harris returns to the bench and is not worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.
Wendell Carter Jr.

ORL Center #34

Wendell Carter Jr. (left foot plantar fasciitis) is out for Saturday’s game against Detroit.

Carter will miss an 11th straight game due to injury, meaning Goga Bitadze remains in the starting lineup. He should be rostered until the Magic clear WCJ to return.
