The former Michigan standout spent much of the year in the G League, but he's begun to see more minutes of late with the Magic in full-on tank mode. Sunday marked Brazdeikis' fourth straight double-digit scoring game.

Magic's Ignas Brazdeikis: New season-high point total
Brazdeikis totaled nine points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two assists and two rebounds in 21 minutes off the bench Thursday in the Magic's 136-118 loss to the Bucks.
In his second appearance since clearing the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols earlier this week, Brazdeikis established new season highs in both scoring and minutes. He was thrust into the larger role out of necessity, as the Magic only had nine players available with seven out with injuries and another five either in the health and safety protocols or still working to regain conditioning. The Magic could get at least one or two more bodies back in the mix for Sunday's game in Boston, so there's a good chance Brazdeikis' playing time takes a hit.
