Orlando Magic PF Al-Farouq Aminu scored 17 points (8-11 FG, 1-1 FT) with 10 rebounds, six assists, two steals, a block, and three turnovers across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 110-99 loss to the Denver Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact:
Aminu had his best performance of the 2020-21 season against the Nuggets on Tuesday, shooting 72 FG% while dishing six assists and collecting 10 rebounds in a 110-99 loss. The Magic have shifted towards a heavier front-court presence with Aaron Gordon healthy and back in the lineup. Aminu is a must-add in season formats, as Gordon is rumored to be on the trade block and could depart Orlando by Thursday's 3 pm ET trade deadline. However, he is more of a fade option in DFS against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday, as the Suns do not have an All-Star front-court that will lock up Nikola Vucevic and Aaron Gordon like Denver managed to do on Tuesday.
