Anthony Black Steps Into Expanded Role Following Team Injuries

Anthony Black is drawing heavy fantasy interest as a top waiver wire target following extended injuries to Paolo Banchero and Jalen Suggs, which ensure a heavy workload of 30-plus minutes per night. In his first game of the season on Sunday, Black posted 18 points, three rebounds, five assists, two steals, and five three-pointers. He averaged 16.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.9 triples, and 2.2 stocks across 39 healthy starts last year.
