2025 Fantasy Outlook
With Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs all missing extended time last season, da Silva saw an expanded role as a rookie. The No. 18 overall pick in 2024 started 38 of his 74 regular-season appearances. As a starter, da Silva averaged 9.2 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 28.2 minutes while posting 40/31/90 shooting splits. However, his production dropped off significantly when operating as a reserve, which is where he'll start the 2025-26 season. The Magic swapped Kentavious Caldwell-Pope for Desmond Bane this offseason and added Tyus Jones in free agency. Those additions shouldn't impact da Silva's role as the top forward behind Wagner and Banchero, but the addition of Bane does add another go-to playmaker whenever Orlando is shorthanded. Da Silva showed enough in Year 1 to be on fantasy managers' radars, but he doesn't need to be drafted in standard leagues and is multiple injuries away from seeing the expanded role he had at times in 2024-25.

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Born in Munich, Germany, da Silva has basketball roots with his brother currently playing professionally for Barcelona. A back-to-back All-Pac-12 team inclusion, da Silva fueled Colorado to its first NCAA Tournament appearance since the 2020-21 season with averages of 16.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.7 steals plus blocks on 49.3/39.5/83.5% shooting. da Silva solidified his status as a bona fide, multi-level scoring weapon in 2023-24, finishing in the 76th percentile by converting 63.5% of his shots at the rim, ranking in the 82nd percentile by knocking down 46.7% of his shots in the midrange, and canning 48.4% of his unguarded catch-and-shoot 3-point attempts. That being said, da Silva shooting just 35.8% on his guarded catch-and-shoot attempts and 21.1% on a limited volume of dribble-jumpers is distinctly less compelling. His 60.6 true-shooting percentage still ranked 152nd nationwide this season, which is extremely impressive given his balanced shot diet. Colorado ranked in the 71st percentile with a 104.1 defensive rating during da Silva's minutes this season, with the switchable forward offering valuable scheme versatility - although he's more of a quality team defender than one-on-one stopper. da Silva's archetype is alluring due to his size and fluidity, but the question becomes: what can he excel at versus next-level physicality? da Silva's lean frame will soon face rim protection like never before, and his handle out of self-creation isn't twitchy - although it's worth noting that da Silva added 20 pounds throughout his tenure at Colorado. Knocking down 34.8% of 155 guarded catch-and-shoot threes across the past two seasons is a workable foundation, but his prospect floor might still be lower than many perceive. He has logged double-digit rebounds just four times in 69 games since 2022. Ultimately, da Silva has crafty touch, savvy cutting, and good decision-making to score efficiently. Rui Hachimura comes to mind as a comparison, while Tobias Harris would be a best-case scenario.

Drops 16 points off bench
FOrlando Magic
October 22, 2025
Da Silva registered 16 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and one rebound in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 125-121 win over the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Da Silva looked strong on the offensive end and was the only Magic bench player to reach double figures. He appeared confident from beyond the arc, where he converted at a clip of 33.5 percent over 74 regular-season games a season ago. However, da Silva's production elsewhere wasn't nearly as impressive, as he tallied only one rebound outside of the scoring column.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Da Silva spent four years at Colorado and finished his senior year with averages of 16.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.9 triples, 1.1 steals and 1.8 turnovers per game on 49.3 percent shooting from the floor and 83.5 percent from the free throw line. The former Colorado standout lands into a decent situation, as the Magic have been able to develop young players in the past, but that doesn't mean da Silva will be trusted into a role in the rotation right away. With the Magic being a playoff contender in the Eastern Conference, Da Silva isn't expected to see steady minutes at either forward spot, and it wouldn't be surprising if he starts the season in the G League to get regular playing time as he continues to adjust to the NBA level. Based on this scenario, fantasy managers shouldn't consider drafting Da Silva in standard or deeper drafts. He might have some upside in dynasty formats, but even that's debatable considering the lack of minutes he'll probably have as a rookie.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Turns heads at EuroBasket
FOrlando Magic
September 16, 2025
Quinn Everts of Orlando Magic Daily believes Da Silva's play at EuroBasket could have the franchise rethinking their rotation.
ANALYSIS
"Da Silva did stand out, giving fans a potential glimpse at what his role could be back in Orlando; a floor-spacing, do-it-all complementary connector on offense and a lockdown, versatile defender on the other end," Everts said. Da Silva averaged 10.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers, 0.9 steals and 0.8 blocks in 19.2 minutes per game for Germany, with Everts noting that he has the potential to win the sixth man role in Orlando. The Magic are significantly deeper this season with the addition of Desmond Bane, and both Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero will have considerable workloads when healthy. So it's fair to wonder just how many minutes Da Silva can carve out in his second season.
