Magic's Anthony Black: Leads second unit in win
Black provided 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four assists, three steals, one rebound and one block over 29 minutes during Saturday's 133-121 win over the Knicks.
Black put up single-digit shot attempts for a second consecutive contest, though he still led the bench in points while reaching double figures for the fourth game in a row. The 21-year-old guard continues to provide value on both ends of the floor, leading all players in steals Saturday. He has tallied multiple steals in each of his last three games, totaling nine swipes during that span.

Magic's Anthony Black: Tallies four swipes
Black contributed 12 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and four steals over 29 minutes during Thursday's 129-101 win over the Clippers.
Black turned in a well-rounded final line off the bench, scoring in double figures while contributing across the board. He racked up a team-high four steals on the way to a victory, a mark he also reached Nov. 7 against Boston. Black continues to find ways to be productive even after the return of Jalen Suggs.

Magic's Anthony Black: Still productive off bench
Black posted 21 points (8-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 5-7 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 33 minutes during the Magic's 121-113 win over the Warriors on Tuesday.
Even with Jalen Suggs returning from a one-game absence to supplant Black from the starting lineup Tuesday, the latter still ended up playing meaningful minutes off the bench. Black led the Magic with a plus-18 point differential, and his 21 points were the second most on the team behind Desmond Bane (23). Black has established a consistent role for himself and should continue to see reasonable playing time regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench. In nine games (two starts) since Nov. 1, he has averaged 10.9 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.3 steals over 27.1 minutes per game.

Magic's Anthony Black: Reverting back to bench Tuesday
Black won't start Tuesday's game against the Warriors, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.
With Jalen Suggs returning from a one-game absence due to a groin issue, Black will slide to the second unit. Over his last five outings off the bench, the 21-year-old guard has averaged 8.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.6 steals in 23.8 minutes per contest.

Magic's Anthony Black: Gets starting nod
Black will enter the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockets, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Jalen Suggs (groin) is out for Sunday's game, but he's day-to-day moving forward. Black has been a bright spot for the Magic this season, posting averages of 10.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.1 three-pointers in 25.7 minutes per contest this season.

Magic's Anthony Black: Comes up big in fourth quarter
Black posted 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three assists, three rebounds, two steals and one blocks over 23 minutes during the Magic's 124-107 win over the Knicks on Wednesday.
Black reverted to a bench role Wednesday due to the return of Jalen Suggs, but the former ended up taking on a larger role after Paolo Banchero left in the first half due to a groin injury. Black made his presence felt in the fourth quarter, when he scored nine of his 17 points to help the Magic maintain their lead. The third-year pro could enter Orlando's starting lineup if Banchero were to be sidelined due to his injury, beginning with Friday's game against Brooklyn.

Magic's Anthony Black: Moves back to bench
Black will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.
Black drew the start against the Trail Blazers on Monday due to the absence of Jalen Suggs (knee), but with Suggs back in action, Black will return to a reserve role. The third-year guard posted eight points, four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 32 minutes against Portland.

Magic's Anthony Black: Starting sans Suggs
Black will start in Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.
With Jalen Suggs (knee) sidelined, Black will get the starting nod against Portland. Over his last five appearances (one start), the 21-year-old guard has averaged 10.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.6 steals in 27.0 minutes per contest.

Magic's Anthony Black: Logs four steals vs. Boston
Black supplied 13 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four assists, four rebounds and four steals over 33 minutes during the Magic's 123-110 win over the Celtics on Friday.
Black led the Magic's bench in scoring Friday and led both teams with a season-high four swipes. He played a season-high 33 minutes Friday, 19 of which came in the second half. Even though he occupies a reserve role, Black has been consistently getting more playing time than Jalen Suggs as the latter continues to have his minutes restricted while recovering from offseason knee surgery.

Magic's Anthony Black: Returns to bench
Black will come off the bench for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
This is an expected move with Jalen Suggs back in the mix after a maintenance day. Black was outstanding in Thursday's win over the Hornets with 20 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 31 minutes.

Magic's Anthony Black: Scores 20 points with full line
Black provided 20 points (8-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 31 minutes during Thursday's 123-107 win over the Hornets.
Black has been heating up over the past four games, posting averages of 15.8 points on 52.4 percent shooting from the field and 72.2 percent at the stripe to go with 3.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.5 triples, 1.3 steals, 1.0 block and 3.3 turnovers per contest. He got the start Thursday with Jalen Suggs taking a rest day, so while he'll likely return to the bench his next time out, he should still be a sizable part of the rotation.

Magic's Anthony Black: Starting sans Suggs
Black will start Thursday's game against the Hornets.
Jalen Suggs will rest Thursday, opening up a place in the first unit. Last regular season, Black averaged 9.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.2 steals in 28.9 minutes per contest across 10 games as a starter.

Magic's Anthony Black: Team option picked up
The Magic picked up Black's fourth-year team option Wednesday, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
This was a formality as far as Orlando is concerned. This move keeps Black under contract with the Magic through the 2026-27 campaign. Black is averaging 12.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists through four games to open the regular season.

Magic's Anthony Black: Drops 14 off bench
Black put up 14 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-7 FT), three rebounds, two assists, a steal and a block in 30 minutes during Monday's 136-124 loss to Philadelphia.
Despite Jalen Suggs (knee) returning from his one-game absence, Black still played 30 minutes and scored in double digits again, leading all bench players in scoring as well. Black has risen to be one of the main contributors among the second unit, and he will look to continue his momentum going Wednesday against Detroit.

Magic's Anthony Black: Pops for 19 bench points
Black posted 19 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 110-98 loss to Chicago.
Black struggled to make an impact during Friday's matchup against the Hawks, finishing with eight points, three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 21 minutes. However, he came through with a strong showing Saturday, leading the bench in scoring while also contributing defensively. Black experienced an uptick in minutes with Jalen Suggs (knee) ruled out, so expect his workload to take a hit once Suggs returns to health.

Magic's Anthony Black: Muted performance in loss
Black racked up eight points (3-4 FG, 2-5 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Friday's 111-107 loss to the Hawks.
Black didn't make much of an impact off the bench. He may struggle to find time on the floor unless Jalen Suggs (knee) isn't available, which could happen often early in the season with the team taking a cautious approach with the veteran guard.

Magic's Anthony Black: Scores 12 off bench
Black logged 12 points (3-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one block in 21 minutes of Friday's 128-98 preseason win over the 76ers.
Jalen Suggs (knee) missed another game and remains without a clear timetable. Tyus Jones started at point guard, but he was pretty quiet in his 19-minute stint. Black may be the third-string point guard on paper when everybody is healthy, but if Friday was any indication, he's going to push for more minutes.
