Jevon Carter scored 14 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3PT, 1-1 FT) and added three rebounds, four assists, and a steal in Orlando's lopsided win over Sacramento on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Carter, who had played a total of four minutes in his first three games with Orlando, played 23 minutes on Thursday and finished one point shy of his season-high of 15 points he had on November 17 as a member of the Bulls. It was his eighth double-digit scoring effort of the year. It remains to be seen if Carter will see more minutes moving forward or if this was an anomaly due to the lopsided margin. Either way, Carter is off the fantasy radar.
Jevon Carter has signed with the Magic.
Fantasy Impact
Carter was waived by the Bulls on February 1. The veteran guard played in 23 games off the Chicago bench this season, averaging 5.4 points and shooting 41.0% from long range. Carter will now provide backcourt depth for Orlando.
Jevon Carter accounted for 15 points (5-of-13 FG), four rebounds, one assist and five three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Carter made the most of extra minutes with Coby White and Tre Jones sidelined, knocking down five threes in his best outing of the season. His fantasy value remains tied almost entirely to shooting nights like this, so he’s more of a short-term fill-in than someone managers need to prioritize.
Jevon Carter (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Fantasy Impact
Carter's shoulder injury is a relatively new one, but it may still leave him sidelined for another game on Friday. If that's the case, expect more work for Kevin Huerter while he's out.
Jevon Carter (shoulder) is out for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors.
Fantasy Impact
Carter will be out on Tuesday. He recently suffered a shoulder injury, and it's unclear how much time he will have to miss because of it. Talen Horton-Tucker is expected to see more work while he's sidelined.
