Anthony Black Returns from Injury as Magic Face NBA Fine

AutoDraft Pro AI

Anthony Black returned to action Monday, scoring 14 points in a win over the Pistons after missing 15 games with an abdominal strain. However, the NBA fined the Orlando Magic $25,000 for violating injury reporting rules by initially listing Black as "out" for that game. Despite the administrative error, Black's return is a positive development for Orlando. He contributed two assists and two steals in 15 minutes, showing little rust after his multi-week absence from the court.
