Da Silva accumulated zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 21 minutes during Monday's 125-120 win over Chicago.
Da Silva went scoreless for the first time since Oct. 27 this season and has now logged consecutive games without making a three-pointer. Prior to Monday's dud, da Silva had been averaging 12.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.5 blocks and 2.0 threes on a 42.1 percent clip over eight games as a starter, so expect him to bounce back Wednesday against the Spurs.

Rotowire
Da Silva notched 17 points (7-17 FG, 3-6 3Pt), eight rebounds and one assist across 30 minutes during Thursday's 129-101 victory over the Clippers.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Strong results in defeat
Rotowire
Da Silva recorded 13 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals across 40 minutes during Sunday's 117-113 overtime loss to Houston.
Da Silva continued to fill in admirably for Paolo Banchero (groin), supplying a full stat line after scoring a season-high 22 points in Friday's win over the Nets. Until Banchero is ready to return to the lineup, da Silva makes sense as an appealing streaming option in the interim. On the year, da Silva has averaged 11.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 steals in 23.1 minutes per contest covering 14 outings.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Nets 22 points with nine boards
Rotowire
Da Silva notched 22 points (8-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and three turnovers across 32 minutes during Friday's 105-98 win over the Nets.
Da Silva got the starting nod with Paolo Banchero (groin) unavailable and made the most of the opportunity, taking advantage of a favorable matchup with the defensively-challenged Nets. It's unclear if Banchero will be able to make it back for Sunday's game in Houston, but groin injuries can be tricky, so plucking up da Silva from the waiver wire wouldn't be the worst idea.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Starting Friday
Rotowire
Da Silva is in the starting lineup for Friday's matchup with the Nets.
Da Silva will earn his first start of the season with Paolo Banchero (groin) unavailable, putting him on the radar as a potential streamer target in deep leagues. Across 38 starts last season, da Silva produced averages of 9.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 triples per contest.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Grabs five boards in win
Rotowire
Da Silva supplied eight points (3-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 124-107 victory over the Knicks.
Da Silva has cooled down noticeably after averaging 11.9 points on 49.3 percent from the field and 1.9 threes on a 41.7 percent clip in his first eight games, to now averaging 8.3 points on 42.9 percent from the field and 1.5 threes on a 33.3 percent clip in his last four. Regardless, he has been very involved in the Magic's rotation off the bench, but fantasy owners would love to see him get his numbers back to how they were at the beginning of the season. Da Silva could see increased playing time moving forward if Paolo Banchero (groin) is forced to miss extended time.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Tallies season-high 20 points
Rotowire
da Silva closed with 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 127-112 loss to Atlanta.
Da Silva scored double digits for the third time in the past four games, ending with a season-best 20 points. Desmond Bane was ejected, giving da Silva some added responsibility on the offensive end. While his production has been somewhat surprising, it does seem unsustainable given that he has played around 22 minutes per contest.

Rotowire
da Silva had 19 points (5-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and three steals over 22 minutes during Thursday's 123-107 victory over the Hornets.
da Silva has been hit-or-miss this season, but he's been trending up over the past two, scoring in the teens, draining threes and snatching steals, so he's on the radar in deep leagues. It helps that he'll draw a favorable matchup against the Wizards on a six-game Saturday.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Scorches nets from deep
Rotowire
Da Silva recorded 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt) and three rebounds in 21 minutes during Wednesday's 135-116 loss to the Pistons.
Da Silva made the most of his opportunities off the bench, tying his season high in made triples while posting his third double-digit scoring performance of the young campaign. He's unlikely to provide much production outside of scoring and rebounding but has proven that he can stack triples on occasion.

Magic's Tristan da Silva: Logs another solid showing
Rotowire
Da Silva dropped 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and three steals across 24 minutes in Friday's 111-107 win over Atlanta.
Friday marked da Silva's second straight showing with at least 15 points and two three-pointers made. He has been one of Orlando's main contributors among the second unit, and will likely continue to operate as the team's sixth man if he keeps this level of production. If da Silva can provide value similar to the six rebound, three assist and three steal game he turned in Friday, in addition to being a scorer, fantasy managers should give serious consideration to rostering him.

The Magic had monitored da Silva's reps in the Summer League, but he's back in action and should be ready to roll for the upcoming season. That said, da Silva will likely be hard-pressed to attain fantasy relevance while Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero are healthy in the Orlando frontcourt.
