Cole Anthony Listed As Questionable For Thursday
1 month agoOrlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (knee) is regarded as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Anthony left Tuesday's contest versus the Cleveland Cavaliers early due to a hyperextended left knee. However, there is a possibility that he may not need to miss any further time. With Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) unavailable, Anthony has been Orlando's starting point guard for the last nine games. His production has been inconsistent during that period, averaging 10.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.1 steals in 23.7 minutes. If Anthony is unable to play against Golden State, Anthony Black will move up the depth chart.
