Wed Apr 1018:58Markelle Fultz Good To Go Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will play on Wednesday against the Bucks. He has been upgraded from questionable to available. Fultz rolled with the starters and logged a season-high 34 minutes against Houston on Tuesday. With Gary Harris (foot) and Franz Wagner (ankle) out of the lineup, Fultz has a good chance to remain in the first unit for Wednesday's matchup. He has averaged 9.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 1.4 steals in a starting role this season.

Fri Mar 2917:29Markelle Fultz Won't Play Against Clippers
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been downgraded to out for Friday's matchup against the Clippers. He was listed as questionable on the initial injury report. Orlando continues to manage Fultz's left knee injury, and we should see him back in the lineup on Saturday as the team completes a back-to-back against Memphis. Fultz started the last game against Golden State, and Gary Harris, who is available again after missing two games with a foot injury, will be his replacement in the first unit. Harris doesn't offer a lot of fantasy value, averaging 8.5 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in a starting role.

Sun Mar 1016:35Jalen Suggs And Markelle Fultz Won't Play On Sunday
Orlando Magic guards Jalen Suggs (thigh) and Markelle Fultz (knee) have been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Indiana. Suggs misses a second consecutive game with a right thigh contusion, while Fultz drops out of the lineup with a left knee strain. Both players were initially regarded as questionable for the contest. The backcourt absentees should provide a big boost to Cole Anthony in a very attractive matchup against an up-tempo team that doesn't defend well. Anthony Black and Gary Harris also have a chance to play larger roles, but they tend to be quite unproductive with their minutes on the court.

Sat Mar 921:03Markelle Fultz Questionable For Sunday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers with a left knee strain. The 25-year-old has had a difficult season, playing in just 27 of the team's 64 games because of injury woes. Fultz tweaked his knee in Friday's game against the New York Knicks and has had issues with it throughout the season. Orlando's starting point guard, Jalen Suggs (thigh), is also listed as questionable to add more concern for Sunday's game. Cole Anthony, Gary Harris, and Anthony Black are the key Magic players to get increased time and usage if Fultz is forced to miss the game.

Tue Mar 515:51Markelle Fultz Out On First Part Of Back-To-Back
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Magic will keep Fultz out on the first leg of their back-to-back as injury maintenance for his troublesome left knee, but the talented guard should be back out there for Wednesday's meeting with the Washington Wizards. Following a three-game absence, Fultz has played from Orlando's bench in his latest four appearances, providing 9.5 points on 55.2% shooting from the field, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 17.7 minutes per contest. Cole Anthony should see an uptick in minutes as a boom-or-bust fantasy option against a Hornets team that holds the third-worst defensive efficiency rating (117.1) in the league, and through his past 10 showings, he's averaging 10.6 points, 4.2 boards, 2.9 dimes, and 1.0 three-pointers during 22.1 minutes per contest.

Mon Mar 423:48Markelle Fultz Questionable Versus Hornets Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The 25-year-old is dealing with a left knee injury, the knee that kept him out of 35 games just one season ago. If Fultz is unavailable, Cole Anthony is a viable option in fantasy play, as he has averaged 11.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 3.1 assists in 60 contests in this year's campaign. Anthony has played particularly well when Fultz has been unavailable.

Sat Feb 2416:57Markelle Fultz Still Out Versus Detroit
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) remains out for Saturday's showdown with the Detroit Pistons. The 25-year-old will now miss his second consecutive game because of his nagging left knee injury, the same one that's him kept off the floor for 35 games throughout the 2023-24 campaign. Of course, Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are Orlando's top offensive options. But Cole Anthony has averaged 14.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.8 assists this season when Fultz doesn't play, so he's worth adding to all fantasy lineups.

Fri Feb 2316:44Markelle Fultz Won't Suit Up On Saturday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out of the Saturday matchup against the Detroit Pistons. He hasn't been able to play in either one of the last two games for the Magic and he'll miss a third as he's being held out for injury maintenance reasons on his left knee. Fultz has only appeared in 21 games so far this year which is unfortunate after it seemed like he turned a corner last season when he was able to play in 60 games. With health factoring in, the 25-year-old seems to be falling out of favor in Orlando, so fantasy managers are better off looking elsewhere for the long term. As he's sidelined, Gary Harris, Jalen Suggs, and Anthony Black should continue to see most of the opportunities in the backcourt.

Wed Feb 2117:56Markelle Fultz Out Thursday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 25-year-old missed the Magic's final game before the All-Star break and will continue to sit out as he manages his knee injury at the start of the stretch run. With Gary Harris (calf) also unavailable, Cole Anthony and Joe Ingles are expected to take on larger roles in Fultz's absence. Fultz has been averaging 8.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 24 minutes per game this season.

Wed Feb 1416:09Magic Resting Markelle Fultz Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will sit out Wednesday's contest versus the New York Knicks. The Magic will keep Fultz out on the second half of their back-to-back to manage the left knee that put the former No. 1 overall pick on the shelf for nearly two months between November and January. Fultz will almost certainly be ready to return to the court in Feb. 22's battle with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Gary Harris (calf) is also unavailable, and although Anthony Black has started in most occurrences with Fultz off the floor, the first-round rookie hasn't been particularly productive with the first unit. Jonathan Isaac and Cole Anthony could be in for expanded roles from the bench, while Orlando should rely more heavily on Jalen Suggs, but it's a rigid matchup all around against a Knicks team that's giving up the third-fewest points per game (109.8) this year.

Tue Jan 3015:52Markelle Fultz, Jonathan Isaac Off Wednesday’s Injury Report
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) and forward Jonathan Isaac (rest) are off the injury report for Wednesday's tilt against the San Antonio Spurs. The Magic used Monday's narrow defeat to the Dallas Mavericks as a maintenance day for the injured left knee of Fultz, who is set to return to Orlando's starting lineup on Wednesday. Isaac started against Dallas but exited following eight minutes of play with an undisclosed injury, and he is slated to be available off the bench against the Spurs.

Thu Jan 2519:01Markelle Fultz Off Friday’s Injury Report
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is off the injury report ahead of Friday's contest versus the Memphis Grizzlies. The Magic managed Fultz's injured left knee in Monday's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, but he'll get back in the mix on Friday. Since returning from a two-month absence, the former No. 1 overall pick is averaging 6.0 points, 3.4 assists, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.1 steals covering his past seven games. Fultz is an option to start in Orlando's backcourt alongside Jalen Suggs, likely pushing Anthony Black to the bench.

Mon Jan 2215:35Magic Holding Markelle Fultz Out Monday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will get the night off on Monday versus the Cleveland Cavaliers after recently returning from a long layoff. The Magic are managing Fultz's surgically-repaired left knee, which caused the former No. 1 overall pick to miss two months of action between November and January because of lingering tendinitis. Orlando is off until Friday when they visit the Memphis Grizzlies, so that should provide Fultz enough time to return to the court. With Gary Harris (calf) still out, Cole Anthony (ankle), who is off Monday's injury report after tweaking his ankle in Sunday's win over the Miami Heat, and Jalen Suggs will handle the bulk of the minutes in the backcourt. Defensive-minded rookie Anthony Black is an option to enter the starting lineup, but this game presents the lowest implied point total (215.5) on Monday's eight-game slate.

Sun Jan 717:50Markelle Fultz Available On Sunday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is available ahead of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This is great news after Fultz has missed most of the season due to a lingering knee issue. In fact, Fultz has only played in five games this season, but appears ready to go now. The expectation is that Fultz will be under a heavy minutes limit until he's back to full speed. He'll come off the bench on Sunday and won't be a reliable fantasy option until he's back to starting again.

Wed Jan 315:37Markelle Fultz Out Yet Again Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is listed as out once again for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Head coach Jamahl Mosley shared last Friday that Fultz is "progressing slowly" from nagging tendinitis in his surgically repaired left knee despite practicing for the past two weeks. It's anyone's guess whether Fultz will be able to return from a nearly two-month absence when the Magic wrap up a four-game Western Conference swing in Friday's showdown with the Denver Nuggets. The 25-year-old playmaker is generating 11.4 points on 48.2% field-goal shooting, 4.0 assists, and 1.2 steals per game and remains worth holding in fantasy leagues at this stage of his recovery. Defensive menace Anthony Black continues to start in Orlando's backcourt, but Jalen Suggs and the streaky Cole Anthony are still the guards to roster while Fultz sits out.

Tue Jan 221:23Markelle Fultz Downgraded To Out
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been downgraded to out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The young guard has missed over two months of action while he recovers from left knee tendinitis. The expectation is that Fultz is going to be heavily limited once he does eventually return to the court. In the meantime, Anthony Black will continue to start for the Magic. He usually doesn't bring much to the table, so most fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option.

Mon Jan 121:34Markelle Fultz Uncertain For Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is currently listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The former top pick was tagged as questionable going into their last game and eventually sat out. Fultz has missed nearly two months of action due to left knee tendinitis. The expectation is he'll be under a heavy minutes limit, assuming he does play on Tuesday. In the meantime, Anthony Black should continue to start and have increased fantasy value until Fultz is ready to return.

Wed Dec 27 202318:13Markelle Fultz Still Inactive Against 76ers
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) will not return to the team's lineup on Wednesday versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Fultz misses out on a "revenge-game" opportunity against the Sixers to make his long-awaited return from lingering tendinitis in his surgically repaired left knee. Fultz was officially ruled out well in advance of Wednesday's tip-off, which doesn't exactly spell optimism that the former No. 1 overall pick's return is imminent. Head coach Jamahl Mosley has generally employed a hot-hand method among Jalen Suggs and sixth man Cole Anthony in Fultz's 25-game absence. Nominal rookie starter Anthony Black achieved career highs in points (23), threes (four), and steals (four) in Tuesday's win over the Washington Wizards, but it came with a career-worst five turnovers. Suggs and Anthony are the preferred fantasy options and should be held onto for however long Fultz remains off the court.

Tue Dec 26 202317:37Markelle Fultz Unavailable Once Again Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) still hasn't been cleared for game action on Tuesday against the Washington Wizards. We last heard that Fultz was practicing in a limited capacity a week ago, but he's just not ready to give it a go on the court. The 17-11 Magic clearly aren't fooling around with the oft-injured Fultz, whose tendinitis in his surgically repaired left knee will have now kept him off the floor for 24 games since Nov. 2. The 25-year-old slashing playmaker was tallying decent numbers before the setback and is worthy of a stash in most fantasy leagues, totaling 11.4 points on 48.2% field-goal shooting, 4.0 assists, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.2 steals per game. Fultz hopes to finally make his return on Wednesday versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Continue streaming Jalen Suggs (wrist), who reportedly implied at Tuesday's shootaround that he will play against the Wizards, and Cole Anthony to your heart's content.

Tue Dec 19 202318:56Markelle Fultz Not Ready To Return Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. Fultz is on the precipice of a return from left knee tendinitis, after Dan Savage of the team's official site reported that Fultz practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, but it will have to wait at least one more night. The upstart Magic have gone 13-6 this season without Fultz, who hasn't played since Nov. 9, but they'll hope to finally get the former No. 1 overall pick back in the mix on Thursday for a showdown with the Milwaukee Bucks. Jalen Suggs and the erratic Cole Anthony have gotten comfortable manning Orlando's backcourt with Fultz not around, but the former has been the more dependable fantasy option overall, with averages of 11.6 points, 1.6 three-pointers, and 1.5 steals in 25.2 minutes covering 17 games without Fultz. Anthony is playing only 18.8 minutes per game through his last three nights.
