Limited scoring impact in big win Bane recorded five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five assists and two steals in 20 minutes during Saturday's 125-94 victory over the Wizards.

Impact Bane finished in single digits for the second straight game Saturday, though it didn't impact the Magic's dominant win. Acquired from the Grizzlies this offseason to bolster perimeter scoring, the sharpshooting guard has struggled to find his rhythm, connecting on just 25.8 percent of his attempts from deep. Through seven games, the 27-year-old is averaging 14.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.7 assists -- all notable declines from his 2024-25 production.

Fouls out in loss to 76ers Bane fouled out of Monday's 136-124 loss to the 76ers, finishing with 24 points (10-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 34 minutes.

Impact Bane fouled out for the first time in two years Monday, and he definitely picked up some frustration fouls along the way, as he was perturbed by Tyrese Maxey getting the better of him all game long. He also struggled from distance, which has been a team-wide trend for Orlando over the past two, with the Magic converting just 22.4 percent of their three-point looks. They'll simply need to be better Wednesday against the Pistons if they hope to snap the losing streak.

Dishes five assists in loss Bane posted 15 points (5-14 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes in Friday's 111-107 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Bane did not shoot well from beyond the arc Friday, but was able to provide value in the rebounds and assists categories. With Jalen Suggs (knee) doubtful to play in the second leg of a back-to-back, Bane may be tasked with more playmaking responsibilities as the Magic take on the Bulls on Saturday.

Impact The Magic struggled mightily from beyond the arc last season, which is why they brought in Bane, who is a career 41-percent, 3-point sniper. He looked comfortable working in Orlando's offense Wednesday night, did a nice job spreading the floor, and really took over late when it mattered most to help deliver the win for the Magic. He's all set up for a big year with the Magic.
