Jalen Suggs

Suggs didn't offer much offensive value on Monday, but he has reached double figures in seven of ten games played in November. His issue recently has been field goal percentage, with Suggs shooting 36.1% from the field over the last two weeks. However, he remains a top 75 player in 9-cat formats for the season, exceeding his Yahoo ADP (102).

Suggs had 17 points on 14 shots, but was still +17 in 28 minutes in the 25-point victory. He knocked down 3-of-5 attempts from behind the 3-point line. Paolo Banchero has been out for the Magic recently, but Suggs is just having a great start to the season independent of any additional usage he might be seeing with Banchero sidelined.

Suggs exited the game following a collision with 8:46 remaining in the second quarter, though he has since returned, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.

Suggs recorded a complete stat line on Wednesday, continuing his solid start to the season. The Magic point guard is averaging 1.8 steals and 1.0 blocks per game, which has more than supplemented his offensive improvements. Suggs has been a top-20 fantasy player thus far, exceeding the preseason expectations of many fantasy managers.

Even though Suggs didn't record a steal for the first time this season, he was still able to continue his strong performance in this game. The former top five pick currently ranks in the top-20 in 9-cat value, and he has been able to contribute in every category, aside from a subpar field goal percentage. With Paolo Banchero sidelined for the foreseeable future, everyone on the team will have to step up to keep the team afloat. More responsibility will certainly fall of the shoulders of Suggs, who has been up to the challenge so far.
