No Return For Markelle Fultz Tuesday
1 week agoOrlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) is still listed as out for Tuesday's In-Season Tournament game versus the Toronto Raptors. The tally is up to six games consecutively and nine out of 10 absences for Fultz, as he continues to deal with nagging tendinitis in his surgically repaired left knee. The 25-year-old's next chance to return comes on Wednesday when the Magic host the defending-champion Denver Nuggets, but we're not holding our breath for that to happen at this point. Head coach Jamahl Mosley should continue adopting a hot-hand approach with guards Jalen Suggs, Cole Anthony, and Anthony Black while Fultz is recovering. Suggs has proven to the most reliable of the three thus far, registering mid-round fantasy value with averages of 12.4 points, 2.1 steals, and 1.5 triples in 27.0 minutes covering 12 games for Orlando.
