Black provided five points (2-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 104-103 overtime win over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Black has been struggling over the past two games, going 5-for-21 from the floor and 1-for-9 from distance. The third-year guard has hit a rough patch, but he was playing well enough before this cold streak to justify holding in standard formats.

Black supplied six points (3-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one block in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Black and the rest of Orlando's starters did not play in the fourth quarter after the team fell behind by as many as 26 points. Head coach Jamahl Mosley stuck with the bench unit as they mounted a comeback that ultimately fell short. The 21-year-old guard logged just 20 minutes, his second-lowest total of the season and lowest since Nov. 14. It wasn't his cleanest performance when he did play, shooting just 30 percent from the field and tying a team-high four turnovers.

Black logged 27 points (8-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 10 assists, three rebounds, four blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during the Magic's 135-127 win over the Pacers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Black recorded his second double-double of the season Sunday (and the third of his career), with his 10 assists marking a career high. He is the fifth player aged 21 or younger in Magic franchise history to record at least 25 points and 10 assists in a game, and the third-year guard may continue to see an increased workload in the short term if Jalen Suggs (knee) and Franz Wagner (ankle) remain sidelined. In 12 games since entering the starting lineup Dec. 9, Black has averaged 21.2 points, 5.2 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 2.3 threes, 1.3 steals and 0.9 blocks over 34.1 minutes per game.

Black finished Friday's 121-114 loss to Chicago with 18 points (8-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals over 33 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Black finished second on the Magic in scoring behind Paolo Banchero's 31-point performance and led the way with seven assists. Black also continued his impressive play on the defensive end, racking up two steals in five of his last six matchups. Friday's showing is a strong start to the new month after averaging 25.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.8 steals in his last five games of December.

Black accumulated 27 points (9-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Monday's 107-106 loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
Black came out firing after halftime, scoring 16 of his game-high 27 points in the third quarter. The third-year guard has started each of the Magic's last nine games and has given Orlando a much-needed boost in the absences of Jalen Suggs (hip) and Franz Wagner (ankle). Over that nine-game span, Black has averaged 21.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 2.6 threes and 1.2 steals over 34.4 minutes per game.

Black recorded 38 points (14-24 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 3-6 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Saturday's 127-126 win over Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Paolo Banchero didn't have his best game and was limited to 12 points on 6-for-13 shooting, but Black stepped up for the Magic and delivered a career-best scoring mark in this tight one-point victory. Black has been on a tear of late and has reached the 20-point mark in five of his previous six outings, a stretch in which he's averaging 24.1 points per game.

Black recorded 24 points (8-17 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block across 36 minutes in Friday's 120-105 loss to the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
With Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (hip) remaining sidelined, Black impressed yet again. The 21-year-old guard led Orlando in scoring and three-pointers made, finishing with 20-plus points for the fourth time in his last five outings. The third-year pro also tied the team-high marks in assists and steals, and he has racked up multiple swipes in back-to-back games.

Black produced 22 points (8-21 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 110-106 win over the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how long Black's run of production will last, but the eventual returns of Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (hip) will obviously hurt his fantasy value. The increase for Black is easy to view, as he's averaged 17.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.0 steals over six games since joining the first unit.

Black registered 19 points (8-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one block across 31 minutes during Monday's 120-97 loss to the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Black will be a valuable piece of the puzzle as the team awaits the return of Jalen Suggs (hip) and Franz Wagner (ankle). The Arkansas product is on pace to crush his previous season averages over his first two years in Orlando, averaging 13.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.2 steals over 29 games this season.

Black closed Saturday's 128-127 overtime win over the Jazz with 20 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds and five assists over 40 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Jalen Suggs' (hip) absence has allowed Black to log four consecutive starts, and his standout production might summon an adjustment in the rotation upon Suggs' return. Franz Wagner's return is still at least a week away, so the team could conceivably run with Suggs and Black in the backcourt and shift Desmond Bane to the wing, a position where he is usually comfortable.
