Sun Mar 22 201517:15Channing Frye: (Illness) Will Not Play Sunday
Frye came down with an illness ahead of Sunday's game against the Nuggets and will not ultimately take the court, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Frye should be considered day-to-day as Andrew Nicholson takes over at power forward in the starting lineup. The next opportunity for Frye to take the court will be against the Hawks on Wednesday.
Wed Mar 18 201519:50Frye will start Wednesday's contest at Dallas
Frye will start Wednesday's contest at Dallas, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Because Dedmon is sitting out Wednesday due to a sore ankle, Frye has been afforded the opportunity to return to the starting five. In 49 nods this season, Frye has averaged 8.4 points (on 40 percent shooting), 4.6 rebounds, 2.1 three-pointers, 1.4 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.7 blocks in 29 minutes.
Wed Mar 11 201511:51Frye returned to bench and scored three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt)...
Frye returned to the bench and scored three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt) grabbed a single rebound in 19 minutes against the Pacers on Tuesday.
With the return of Nikola Vucevic to the starting lineup, Frye was delegated to a bench role, where he struggled Tuesday. He could reenter the starting lineup in place of Dewayne Dedmon eventually, but the Magic currently have too many healthy forwards in the rotation for any of them to have consistent fantasy value right now.
Mon Mar 9 201516:48Frye replaced by Maurice Harkless in second-half starting lineup...
Frye was replaced by Maurice Harkless in the second-half starting lineup Sunday against the Celtics.
Frye played 16 minutes one game after scoring a season-high 22 points. He doesn't fit coach James Borrego's defensive scheme, starting only because Nikola Vucevic (ankle) is sidelined. The shots and opportunity are there; he's just been overshadowed by Dewayne Dedmon's defense and Victor Oladipo's offensive explosion.
Sat Mar 7 201500:09Frye started in place of Nikola Vucevic (ankle) Friday
Frye started in place of Nikola Vucevic (ankle) Friday. He scored 22 points (7-11 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and added 10 rebounds, three assists, one steal, and three blocks in 35 minutes against the Kings.
Frye is in the middle of a disappointing season, but he stepped up in a big way Friday. If Vucevic continues to miss time, Frye makes for an interesting flier option.
Fri Mar 6 201518:31Frye will be back in starting lineup Friday with Nikola Vucevic ...
Frye will be back in the starting lineup Friday with Nikola Vucevic (ankle) sidelined, the Orlando Sentinel's Josh Robbins reports.
Frye was relegated to the bench Wednesday in favor of Dwayne Dedmon, but now with Vucevic out, Frye will get back with the starters. He has been seeing 14-24 minutes per game of late, which rarely allows him to prove useful in most fantasy formats.
Wed Mar 4 201519:04Frye will come off bench Wednesday against Suns
Frye will come off the bench Wednesday against the Suns, Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Dwayne Dedmon, a superior defender, will get the nod at power forward as Frye shifts to the bench. Frye has started the past nine games, but averaged only 7.2 points and 1.9 rebounds while shooting 40 percent from the field over that span.
Thu Feb 26 201518:29Frye averaging 17.6 minutes per game as starting power forward f...
Frye is averaging 17.6 minutes per game as the starting power forward for head coach James Borrego.
Frye has been splitting minutes with Dewayne Dedmon, Kyle O'Quinn, and Tobias Harris ever since Jacque Vaughn was fired. James Borrego has shifted the focus to defense, preferring to play Harris at power forward and utilize Willie Green or Evan Fournier in smaller lineups.
Fri Feb 20 201523:36Frye (finger) started Friday against Pelicans
Frye (finger) started Friday against the Pelicans. He scored two points (1-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt) and added two rebounds and one steal in 18 minutes.
Despite dislocating his finger in the last game before the All-Star break, Frye was able to recover and not miss a game from the injury. By playing, however, Frye may have ended up hurting fantasy players, who would have probably received better production elsewhere. Until Frye recovers from his current slump - he's scored in double figures just twice in his past 11 games, despite averaging 17 minutes per game - he can be safely ignored in most formats.
Fri Feb 20 201519:25Frye (finger) in starting lineup to begin Friday's game against ...
Frye (finger) was in the starting lineup to begin Friday's game against the Pelicans.
Frye entered the All-Star break with a finger injury but was apparently able to recoup during the extended time off the court. He should be available moving forward in his normal capacity.
Wed Feb 11 201520:49Frye sustained dislocated left index finger Wednesday against Kn...
Frye sustained a dislocated left index finger Wednesday against the Knicks and won't return, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Prior to the injury, Frye recorded three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and one steal in 10 minutes as the Magic's starting power forward. With the All-Star break imminent, he'll have plenty of time to recover before his next possible game on Friday, Feb. 20 versus the Pelicans.
Sat Feb 7 201502:43Frye moved into starting lineup Friday, scoring seven points (3-...
Frye moved into the starting lineup Friday, scoring seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and adding two rebounds and two assists in 17 minutes against the Lakers.
Despite the starting nod, Frye was ineffective and played only limited minutes. Frye replaced guard Evan Fournier in the starting lineup, which is an indication that new interim head coach James Borrego is still tinkering with his lineups and his rotation. Monitor this situation over the next couple of weeks, since whoever does settle in as Borrego's fifth starter will experience a significant boost in fantasy value.
Sat Jan 31 201523:12Frye scored 10 points (4-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt) with three rebounds in ...
Frye scored 10 points (4-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt) with three rebounds in 20 minutes off the Magic bench in Saturday's loss to Dallas.
Frye moved to the bench after playing just 15 scoreless minutes on Thursday against Milwaukee. He is hitting just below 40 percent of his 3-pointers, but is getting limited opportunities in his first year with Orlando.
Sat Jan 31 201518:25Frye will come off bench Saturday versus Mavericks
Frye will come off the bench Saturday versus the Mavericks, the Magic's official site reports.
Such a move was forecast when Frye began the second half of Thursday's loss to the Bucks off the bench. Moreover, he's averaging just 14 minutes per game over the past two outings, which erases any fantasy viability that the 31-year-old picked up this season. In his place, Tobias Harris will get the nod at power forward.
Mon Jan 26 201522:00Frye began second half of Monday's game on bench
Frye began the second half of Monday's game on the bench, Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
The reason for the move is not clear at this time, but the situation surrounding Frye's minutes is certainly something to keep tabs on. Frye is struggling mightily this month - 34.0% FG, 35.6% 3Pt - but is still averaging just under 29 minutes per game.
Sat Jan 17 201509:11Frye had one of best games of season against Grizzlies on Friday...
Frye had one of his best games of the season against the Grizzlies on Friday as he put up 17 points (5-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, and three blocks in 38 minutes.
Frye has struggled shooting the ball this season, although Friday's performance was decent enough as he also managed to compile a well-rounded box score. He seems to have regained his spot in the starting lineup moving forward and is on the borderline of deserving a roster spot in standard-sized leagues.
Sun Jan 11 201502:37Frye replaced Kyle O'Quinn in starting lineup, and played 32 min...
Frye replaced Kyle O'Quinn in the starting lineup, and played 32 minutes Saturday, scoring three points (1-10 FG, 1-8 3Pt) with eight rebounds, three assists, and two steals.
Even with Frye back starting and getting more than 30 minutes, his fantasy appeal is limited as we saw when he initially lost the job. If you need three-pointers from your big men, Frye is a middling option, but that is the only place he has value.
Sat Jan 10 201522:15Frye will start Saturday against Portland
Frye will start Saturday against Portland, Orlando Sentinel reports.
Kyle O'Quinn, who is shooting just 22.7 percent so far this month, will head to the bench, opening the door for Frye to make his 29th start of the season.
Thu Jan 8 201501:30Frye (elbow) played 19 minutes putting up zero points (0-5 FG, 0...
Frye (elbow) played 19 minutes putting up zero points (0-5 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebounds, one assist and one turnover.
Frye has been coming off the bench as of late and is averaging 6.6 points and 3.0 rebounds in 21 minutes per game in that role this season. The Magic play the Lakers Friday.
Wed Jan 7 201520:34Frye (elbow) will be available Wednesday against Nuggets
Frye (elbow) will be available Wednesday against the Nuggets, John Denton of OrlandoMagic.com reports.
Frye had previously insisted that his current elbow ailment wouldn't cost him any time, and this report falls right in line with that notion. He'll resume his regular role backing up starting power forward Kyle O'Quinn.
