Bane struggled for the first three quarters of Tuesday’s game, scoring ten points on 3-of-11 shooting from the field. He flipped a switch in the fourth, scoring 12 points and knocking down two three-pointers. Since the trade deadline, Bane has provided top-10 per-game value in eight-cat formats, according to Basketball Monster. The Magic play two more games in Week 18, starting with the Rockets on Thursday.

One day removed from scoring 34 points in a double-overtime loss to the Suns, Bane was even more productive against the Clippers. The 36 points were one shy of his season-high, and the Magic guard has scored 30 or more on three of his last four appearances. Over the past month, Bane has been a top-10 player in nine-cat formats, performing even better than fantasy managers hoped he would this season. The Magic conclude their road trip on Tuesday against the Lakers, the first of three games they’ll play during Week 18.

Bane put together a solid final line in Thursday’s win. He shot the ball well on minimal attempts, made the majority of his three-point attempts, and was active on the defensive end of the floor. Despite the scoreboard being fairly one-sided, he still was able to log 32 minutes of game action, which was crucial to his overall production. He’ll have a chance to log another good performance on Saturday against the Suns.

Bane got off to a scorching hot start to this game, scoring 15 points on five triples in the first quarter. He ended up matching his career high for three-pointers in a game, though he only three more over the final three quarters, which wasn’t enough for Orlando to get the win. Still, Bane has scored at least 20 points in four straight games entering the All-Star break and will look to pick up where he left off after some time off.

Of the five games Orlando has played in February, Bane has scored at least 22 in four. He had another excellent night shooting the basketball on Monday, making all six of his attempts inside the arc and shooting 2-of-5 from three. Over the past two weeks, Bane has provided top-30 per-game value in eight-cat formats according to Basketball Monster. And he could be in for another good night on Wednesday, as the Magic host the Bucks again in their final game before the All-Star break.

Bane has now scored at least 22 points in five of his last six games. The 27-year-old shooting guard has gone a little cold from behind the three point line, shooting just 25 percent from behind the arc over the last four games. Bane has provided second-round per game value over the last two weeks, according to Basketball Monster. The Magic have four games upcoming in Week 17, starting with a home date with the Bucks on Monday.

Not only did Bane lead the way offensively for Orlando, but he and Jalen Suggs combined for seven steals. Bane has scored at least 23 points in four of his last five games, and his fantasy value has improved. He’ll look to finish the week on a high note when the Magic host the Jazz on Saturday afternoon.

Bane has now had at least 20 points in five of his last six games. The 27-year-old shooting guard has provided 14th-overall per game value over the last two weeks. The Magic have three games upcoming in Week 16, starting with a matchup against the defending champion Thunder on Monday.

The Magic trailed by 13 points after three quarters, but Bane got white hot in the fourth quarter and carried Orlando to victory. The 27-year-old shooting guard had 16 points on 6-of-6 shooting and four three-pointers in the fourth quarter alone. The Magic improved to 6-0 this season when Bane has at least 30 points. The was exactly what the team envisioned when they traded for Bane in the offseason. He’s provided third-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Magic will close out the week Sunday against the Spurs.

Bane’s contributions on the offensive end played a big factor in Orlando ending its four-game losing streak on Wednesday. He made shots efficiently from behind the three-point line as well as inside it, while his contributions as a passer led him to finish as one of the Magic’s leaders in assists on the evening. Bane didn’t get to the free-throw line in this game and also failed to make much of an impact on the glass. However, his passing and production as a scorer were enough to land him a nice final line.

Bane followed Saturday’s 20-point performance in a loss to Cleveland with similar production on Monday. The first-year Magic guard was productive from beyond the arc and, in his 38 minutes, finished as the Magic’s second-leading scorer for the game. Yet Bane went without an assist for the first time all season, and with his unspectacular assist total and pair of stocks, he didn’t provide fantasy managers with much production. He’ll have a chance to put up a better line on Wednesday against the Heat.

Orlando’s marquee offseason addition, Bane has been a consistent scoring threat, averaging 18.9 points through 44 games in his Magic debut. The 27-year-old guard has struggled from three-point range this season and was just 2-of-6 from downtown in this one. Simply put, Bane and Banchero haven’t supplied enough from an offensive standpoint which makes it critical to get Franz Wagner (ankle) back as quickly as possible.

For the first time since December 22-23, Bane has scored 20 points or more in consecutive games. The Magic guard did not offer much three-point production, making one of four attempts, but he was perfect from the foul line, and the overall numbers were good. Bane and the Magic play twice during Week 13, with the first game scheduled for Thursday against the Grizzlies in Berlin.

Bane had a bit of an uncharacteristic game Friday against the 76ers. The 27-year-old shooting guard failed to make a three-pointer, something he hadn’t done in his last six games. Bane led the Magic in field goal attempts and points with Franz Wagner out, but it wasn’t enough to even keep the Magic in the game late in the fourth quarter. He’s provided eighth-round per game value this season. The Magic close out the week against the Pelicans on Sunday.

It was a rough night for the first-year Magic guard, who tallied as many turnovers as he did made field goals on Wednesday. His minimal contributions as a passer and rebounder were also notable on a night in which he tallied 35 minutes in an overtime game. Bane has had his share of ups and downs throughout the season, but remains more than capable of putting up big numbers on the offensive end of the floor. He’ll have a chance to bounce back on Friday against the 76ers to put up strong fantasy production.

Bane only played 24 minutes on Tuesday, as he and the other Magic starters were benched for the entire fourth quarter. The lone positive for fantasy managers who have him rostered is that Orlando has three more games in Week 12, starting with the Nets on Wednesday. Tuesday’s production would sting a lot more if Bane only had two more opportunities this week.

Bane shook off a relatively slow start to pour in 20 second-half points on 8-of-11 shooting, including 2-of-3 from three-point range. The 27-year-old scoring machine has been a little underwhelming in his Orlando debut, but he’s still delivered sixth-round fantasy value this season, averaging 19.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.6 blocks through 36 games. The Magic are in line for a four-game slate next week that includes showdowns against the Wizards, Nets, 76ers and Pelicans.

Bane was forced out of Monday’s matchup with Toronto due to back spasms, but the issue won’t cause him to miss any time. Suggs will return following a six-game absence, though it’s unclear if he’ll face any restrictions in his first game back. Anthony Black has been phenomenal, and he should retain standalone value even if he heads back to the bench in favor of Suggs. Tyus Jones will see the biggest reduction in playing time with Suggs back in action.

Due to back spasms, Bane had to leave Monday’s loss to the Raptors briefly before returning. He still played 30 minutes in Toronto. If Bane cannot play on Wednesday, Jase Richardson’s playing time would likely increase. He would only be worth the streaming risk if allowed to start.

Bane capped off a stellar 15-point fourth quarter performance by knocking down a pair of clutch free throws with seven seconds left in regulation to put Orlando ahead for good in a back-and-forth slugfest. The 27-year-old guard has been hot-and-cold from a scoring standpoint in his Magic debut but he’s eclipsed 20 points in four of his last five games.

Bane came up big in the second half of this game, with 17 of his 23 points coming after the halftime break. It was a well-rounded outing for him with a season-best six “stocks” to go with a strong offensive performance. Bane’s past the slow start, and he has helped keep Orlando afloat with Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (hip) sidelined. He’ll look to keep it up against the Hornets on Friday.

After dropping 32 points in Saturday’s win over the Jazz, Bane followed up that performance with another solid effort on Monday. This is the fourth time this season that the Magic guard has scored at least 20 points in consecutive games. And over the last two weeks, Bane has been a third-round player in eight-cat formats. With Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (hip) out, there has been an even greater need for Bane’s scoring, and his fantasy value has increased. Orlando concludes its road trip in Portland on Tuesday.

Trailing by one with four seconds left in overtime, the Magic inbounded the ball to Wendell Carter Jr. who quickly got the ball to Bane for a game-winner from the midrange. The 27-year-old shooting guard carried the Magic to the victory with a game-high 32 points. Orlando has four games in Week 10, starting with a matchup against the Warriors on Monday.

After dropping 37 points on the Heat to reach Saturday’s NBA Cup semifinals in Las Vegas, Bane was held in check by the Knicks. The good news for fantasy managers is that his field-goal percentage didn’t take a severe hit, and Bane also provided solid value in the rebound and assist categories. Unfortunately for those who have him rostered, Bane and the Magic won’t play their first Week 9 game until Thursday, as part of a two-game week.

After a few rough outings, Bane came up big to help the Magic advance to the NBA Cup semifinals in Las Vegas. Bane joked after the game that he just lost $35,000 (courtesy of him throwing a ball at OG Anunoby), and that he’s “gotta go get it back somehow.” Orlando just lost Franz Wagner (ankle) to what is expected to be a multi-week absence. Bane figured things out after a slow start to the season when Paolo Banchero missed time, and now Bane will get the opportunity to gel with Banchero with Wagner sidelined. While Bane has shown on multiple occasions that he can still be as productive as he was in Memphis, it hasn’t happened consistently when this team is healthy. For now, he’ll look to help the Magic win the NBA Cup by taking on more responsibility on offense, which is a great thing for fantasy managers.

After back-to-back 37-point outings, Bane cooled off on Wednesday. However, he still dished out six assists, and he has recorded at least five in seven of his last eight games. Over the past two weeks, Bane has provided fourth-round value in eight-cat formats. While he has been more aggressive in looking for his shot, especially since Paolo Banchero’s groin injury, Bane has not neglected setting up others, which has boosted his fantasy value.

After scoring a season-high 37 points in Friday’s win over the Pistons, Bane matched that total on Monday. He was a bit too deferential to begin his first season with the Magic, but that hasn’t been the case recently, especially after Orlando lost Paolo Banchero to a strained groin. Since the November 12 win over the Knicks, Bane has averaged 24.1 points per game on 47.1 percent shooting from the field and 96.4 percent from the foul line. He has been a top-25 player with Banchero out, which has been great for fantasy managers who have him on their rosters.

Interestingly, while Bane scored a season-high 37 points, he did not make a single three-pointer. The Magic guard missed all five of his attempts, but he shot 65 percent from inside the arc and was a frequent visitor to the foul line. All that was missing from Bane’s stat line was a three-pointer, and the overall production compensated for that. Over the past two weeks, he has been close to a top-25 player in nine-cat formats, rebounding from a slow start to the season. Orlando, which advanced to the NBA Cup quarterfinals with Friday’s victory, won’t play again this week. But the Magic have four games during Week 7.

After a slow start to the season, Bane continues to make his way up the rankings. Over the past two weeks, he has provided top-50 value in nine-cat formats, and the season-long value is approaching top-100 status. Bane has recorded at least five assists in five straight games, and the improved production in that category is one reason why his overall fantasy value has improved.
