Cole Anthony Will Miss Another One
3 years agoOrlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (ankle) won't play against the visiting Bulls. The 21-year-old will now miss his fourth consecutive contest as he deals with a right ankle sprain. This is not an ideal scenario, especially since Anthony is averaging 19.6 points, 6.8 boards, and 5.9 assists, so the team is undoubtedly hoping to have him back on Saturday in Cleveland. Nonetheless, if Terrence Ross (back) plays, he would take Anthony's place. Yet, until Ross' status is updated, it's currently Gary Harris who would remain in the starting lineup, with the veteran averaging a respectable 9.3 points and 2.3 assists while filling in. However, Franz Wagner, Mo Bamba, and Wendell Carter Jr. should pick up most of Anthony's slack offensively, regardless of who replaces him.
