After missing Tuesday's game against the Raptors with an illness, Anthony's game status remains up in the air against the Blazers. The Magic will likely wait until closer to Thursday's tipoff before updating the guard's designation. If Anthony remains out, Anthony Black would be primed to make another spot start at point guard for Orlando.

The Magic are no strangers to injuries. Orlando is leaning on past experience to find light at the end of the tunnel after four losses in a row.

Black was impressive in his fill-in start for Orlando with Cole Anthony sidelined by an illness. The second-year guard now has four starts to his name this season with averages of 10.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 three-pointers.

The Orlando Magic and Toronto Raptors square off for the second time this season north of the border on Tuesday night. Tipoff is at 7:30 p.m. ET.

Jayson Tatum scored 30 points and the Boston Celtics ran past the Orlando Magic 121-94. With freshman star Cooper Flagg and his Duke teammates in the stands, Tatum, a former Blue Devils standout, went 12 of 21 from the floor to help Boston break out of a recent shooting slump.

Orlando looks to end its four-game skid when the Orlando Magic take on Portland. The teams play Thursday for the first time this season.
