Magic's Gary Clark making first start of season Monday in place of Aaron Gordon (knee)

Orlando Magic power forward Gary Clark is starting on Monday against the Portland Trail Blazers.

What It Means:

Clark is replacing Aaron Gordon (right knee inflammation) in the starting lineup. It's his first start in a Magic uniform. The second-year undrafted free agent has averaged 2.8 points and 2.8 rebounds in 12.7 minutes through 13 games for the Magic. Khem Birch should still see a boost off the bench to make up for Gordon's absence.

Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the over/under in the Magic-Pacers game (221.0 points) is tied for lowest on Monday's seven-game slate. The Magic have an implied total of 114.0 points.
