Tristan da Silva has filled the shots Banchero left, and he is a threes add for the next few weeks

Orlando lost to Boston 108-97 on Sunday, and the 12-0 run that kept the Magic in the game was built largely on Tristan da Silva, who made three of his five threes during it, according to ESPN's recap. He finished with 23 points on 9-for-14 shooting and 10 rebounds in 35 minutes off the bench, a line worth 42 fantasy points under ESPN's standard scoring and his best of the season.

Paolo Banchero missed his fourth straight game with the low-grade right high ankle sprain that ESPN's Shams Charania reported on October 24 would keep him out for four to six weeks, and Jalen Suggs is out with what Charania reported two days later is a mild bone bruise in his right knee, to be re-evaluated in two weeks. That leaves Orlando without two of its starters for at least another week, and da Silva has turned roughly the number of shots he was already taking into the best scoring stretch of his season. He sits outside the analysts' consensus top 200 on both points and 9-cat, which is exactly why he is worth a look on the waiver wire this week.
