Harris has been out of the lineup since November 25, missing ten games. While his return would not significantly impact fantasy basketball, it would improve the depth of a team playing without Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.
This will make 10 straight missed games for Harris. The 30-year-old shooting guard told reporters at shoot around Thursday that he feels good and is getting close to making his return. With Franz Wagner also out, Jalen Suggs will continue to operate as the top offensive option for Orlando.
The oblique injuries Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner suffered have made it necessary for others to increase their production, including da Silva. Before Sunday, he hadn't been much of a threat offensively. However, the performance against the Knicks will draw some attention for a rookie rostered in 2% of Yahoo leagues. With Orlando off until Thursday, da Silva isn't a must-add on Monday morning. However, the playing time as a starter makes him worthy of deep-league consideration.
Suggs had a rough night against the Knicks, shooting 1-of-12 from the field in the first half. He was better after halftime, but the Magic guard's night came to a frustrating end when he fouled out with 3:59 remaining in the game. While Suggs has been a top-50 player over the past week, he's made just 35.6% of his shots. The looks haven't been as clean as they were with Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner in the lineup, negatively impacting Suggs' scoring efficiency.
Harris will miss his ninth straight game. With Franz Wagner still out, Jalen Suggs will continue to be the focal point of the Magic's offense. Harris' absence doesn't have a significant impact on fantasy basketball.
