Black started in Sunday's 138-129 loss to the Celtics, when he finished with 14 points (4-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five assists, three rebounds and one steal over 28 minutes. Regardless of whether he starts or comes off the bench, Black has been a regular contributor in the Magic's rotation this season.

Impact Black put up single-digit shot attempts for a second consecutive contest, though he still led the bench in points while reaching double figures for the fourth game in a row. The 21-year-old guard continues to provide value on both ends of the floor, leading all players in steals Saturday.

Comes up big in fourth quarter Black posted 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three assists, three rebounds, two steals and one blocks over 23 minutes during the Magic's 124-107 win over the Knicks on Wednesday.

Impact Black reverted to a bench role Wednesday due to the return of Jalen Suggs, but the former ended up taking on a larger role after Paolo Banchero left in the first half due to a groin injury. Black made his presence felt in the fourth quarter, when he scored nine of his 17 points to help the Magic maintain their lead. The third-year pro could enter Orlando's starting lineup if Banchero were to be sidelined due to his injury, beginning with Friday's game against Brooklyn.

Impact Black led the Magic's bench in scoring Friday and led both teams with a season-high four swipes. He played a season-high 33 minutes Friday, 19 of which came in the second half.
