Anthony notched 16 points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT) and two rebounds across 15 minutes during Sunday's 121-94 victory over Washington. Orlando handled business early on in this contest, allowing Anthony to get some extra run. He made the most of his newfound minutes with a season-high mark of 16 points. Given his minimal role so far this season, fantasy managers will not want to overreact to this outlier performance.
Anthony closed with two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 FT), one rebound and two assists in eight minutes during Friday's 120-109 loss to Cleveland. After being a heavily featured part of Orlando's bench backcourt in the first two games of the season, Anthony has averaged just 6.8 minutes per contest over his last four appearances. Unless Anthony begins to receive more playing time, he is unlikely to garner significant fantasy interest.
Anthony was a DNP-Coach's Decision for Wednesday's loss to the Bulls. Per Sports Illustrated's Mason Williams, Anthony stated, "[I] wasn't playing that well, me and [Magic coach Jamahl Mosley] had a conversation. He keeps it a buck with me, I'm gonna keep it a buck with him. And I mean, this is what happens. It's a business, man." The guard has scored just eight points on 18.8 percent shooting to begin the season. As he's struggled, sophomores Anthony Black and Jett Howard have found more consistent run this season.
Anthony recorded four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one steal over eight minutes during Saturday's 124-111 loss to the Grizzlies. Anthony was efficient shooting the rock but saw only eight minutes of action Saturday. The 24-year-old's minutes have gradually decreased over the last three years, and the guard has taken a backseat to Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black three games into the 2024-25 season. Anthony is only expected to serve as a streaming option given Orlando's depth this season.
Anthony delivered 11 points (3-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, two assists and a steal across 14 minutes off the bench in Monday's 106-104 preseason loss to the Pelicans. Anthony didn't need a lot of minutes to make an impact off the bench in the preseason opener, and while his three-point shooting wasn't good, he still ended as one of three Orlando players with double-digit points. Anthony is expected to open the regular season as Jalen Suggs' primary backup at point guard, but that role shouldn't translate to a lot of fantasy upside outside of very deep formats and dynasty leagues.
Anthony accumulated nine points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes during Friday's 103-96 win over the Cavaliers in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Anthony closed the game Friday, providing the Magic with some much-needed floor spacing. With Gary Harris (hamstring) unavailable, Anthony slid into a larger role. That could stick for Game 7 should Harris remain sidelined.
Anthony produced three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, three assists and one steal over 15 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 win over the Cavaliers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. Aside from a 10-point outing in Game 3, Anthony has scored only seven points (1-15 FG) during the postseason thus far. He averaged 11.5 points on 43.5 percent shooting during the regular season.
Anthony amassed 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two steals over 17 minutes during Sunday's 113-88 victory over the Bucks. Anthony led all bench players in Sunday's regular-season finale in scoring while hauling in a handful of rebounds and handing out a quartet of assists in a balanced outing on the second unit. Anthony, who also swiped a pair of steals, recorded at least 10 points, four rebounds and four assists in two of his final three games of the regular season.
Anthony closed with 23 points (9-14 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 117-99 loss to the Bucks. After scoring just 24 total points in his last five outings, Anthony recorded a team-high 24 points in Wednesday's loss. The 23-year-old guard has now had 10 games this season with at least 20 points. Over his last 10 appearances, Anthony has shot 43.4 percent on 4.4 three-point attempts per game.
