Magic's Markelle Fultz: Scores 12 points off bench
Fultz finished with 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and one steal in 19 minutes during Saturday's 112-89 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
After totaling just one point (0-4 FG) in 19 minutes during the two losses in Cleveland, Fultz accumulated 23 points and six rebounds in 36 minutes during the two wins in Orlando. His ability to be a spark plug off the bench may play a vital role during the decisive Game 5 in Cleveland on Tuesday.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Coming off bench Friday
Fultz isn't starting Friday's game against the 76ers.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Available for Wednesday
Fultz (knee) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Fultz will power through the knee issue, but it's possible he could have his minutes monitored on the second leg of a back-to-back, making him a semi-risky target in daily fantasy leagues.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Iffy for Wednesday
Fultz (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, and the Magic tend to be very cautious with Fultz because of his left knee issues. If Fultz is held out Wednesday, players like Anthony Black and Cole Anthony could see an uptick in minutes.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Starting vs. Houston
Fultz will start Tuesday's game against the Rockets, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.
With Franz Wagner (ankle) sidelined, Fultz will move into the starting unit and operate as the point guard, moving Jalen Suggs and Gary Harris to the wings. Fultz is averaging 9.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game when deployed in a starting role this season.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Improved performance in loss
Fultz provided 15 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 124-115 loss to Charlotte.
Fultz logged at least 30 minutes for the first time in more than two months, an encouraging sign given his season thus far. While this could very well be a step in the right direction, fantasy managers would need to see him doing this for a prolonged period before adding him in standard formats. At this point, it is simply a wait-and-see situation.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Muted role continues in win
Fultz racked up five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), one rebound and one steal across 15 minutes during Wednesday's 117-108 win over the Pelicans.
Fultz managed just 15 minutes in the win, continuing to play as a depth piece in the backcourt. After dealing with a knee injury for much of the season, Fultz has been unable to maintain a steady role. The Magic have outperformed expectations, and given they have been able to do it without Fultz on the floor, there is no reason to think his minutes will increase anytime soon.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Good to go against Memphis
Fultz (knee) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Clippers.
Fultz will return to action Saturday after missing Orlando's previous contest with a left knee injury. Fultz could re-enter the starting lineup against Memphis with Gary Harris (foot) out.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Won't play Friday
Fultz (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Clippers.
Fultz will miss the first half of Orlando's back-to-back set due to left knee injury management, and his status for Saturday's matchup against the Grizzlies is unclear. Gary Harris (foot) should reclaim his spot in the starting lineup in Fultz's absence.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Added to injury report
Fultz is questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers due to left knee injury management.
Fultz wasn't on Orlando's initial injury report for Friday's matchup, but he continues to deal with a knee issue. The Magic play a back-to-back set Friday against the Clippers and Saturday against Memphis, and the team could choose to rest him in one of those matchups. If Fultz suits up Friday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him take on a bench role since Gary Harris (foot) has been cleared to return.

Magic's Markelle Fultz: Does little in start vs. Warriors
Fultz posted four points (2-5 FG), one rebound, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 101-93 loss to the Warriors.
Fultz made his first start since Feb. 13 while Caleb Houstan (ankle) came off the bench Wednesday. Fultz wasn't able to take advantage of the opportunity, however, and he has failed to reach double-digit scoring in each of his last six games. He's averaging 7.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.9 assists over 21.4 minutes per game this season.
