Markelle Fultz Will Suit Up Tuesday, Sit Out Wednesday
3 years agoOrlando Magic point guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been given the green light to play in Tuesday's game vs. the Suns, but he will be held out for Wednesday's contest against New Orleans. Fultz has been on a strict minutes cap in his first three outings of the year, but he has shot 57.1% overall in that stretch. While he remains on the periphery of season-long viability, he could have some DFS cash lineup appeal Tuesday if Jalen Suggs (ankle) is ultimately held out, thereby opening shot opportunities out of the backcourt. Orlando is unlikely to have Fultz play in both legs of a back-to-back over the final month-plus, but he figures to be a significant member of their guard rotation entering 2022-23.
