Ignas Brazdeikis chipped in 20 points (8-16 FG, 2-6 3PT, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists, and two turnovers in Tuesday's win over the Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
Brazdeikis was inserted into the starting lineup to begin the second half, with Franz Wagner departing early with a right ankle sprain. Brazdeikis produced a career-high 20 points to help lead the Magic to a close win. It was his fifth straight double-digit scoring effort, and his stock will undoubtedly rise if Wagner is ruled out for the remaining two games of the season.
Ignas Brazdeikis was the first member of the Orlando Magic to enter into the NBA's healthy and safety protocols on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The 22-year-old hasn't been a regular part of the Orlando rotation in 2021-22 and has instead seen most of his playing time in the G League.
Ignas Brazdeikis scored 21 points (9-12 FG, 3-5 3PT) with six rebounds, an assist, two blocks, and a turnover across 32 minutes during Friday's 122-97 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.
Fantasy Impact
Brazdeikis recently signed a 10-day contract with the Orlando Magic to finish out the season. The 22-year old played college ball at the University of Michigan and was drafted by the Sacramento Kings in 2019. He shot 75 FG% against the 76ers on Friday, leading the Magic in scoring in an otherwise dismal night for Orlando. Brazdeikis will likely see increased minutes in the team's final game of the season, where they will play the second game of a series back-to-back against the 76ers on Sunday.
Ignas Brazdeikis was assigned to the Westchester Knicks on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
The rookie sharpshooter out of Michigan has only logged 47 minutes across seven contests in his inaugural campaign, and he'll head to Westchester for some increased playing time. He'll likely split minutes between Westchester and New York for most of the season.
Ignas Brazdeikis was drafted with the 47th pick in the second round by the New York Knicks.
Fantasy Impact
Ignas Brazdeikis last season with Michigan averaged 14.8 points and 5.4 rebounds a game. He will most likely come off the bench and be the back up small forward to Kevin Knox.
