Magic: Al-Farouq Aminu (knee) may be ready for restart

Orlando Magic forward Al-Farouq Aminu (knee) could play in the restart later this month, according to head coach Steve Clifford.

What It Means:

"They're both in here working every day," Clifford said of Aminu and Jonathan Isaac (knee). "I just think it's really early to try to make an intelligent decision on anything like that." It makes sense for Clifford and the Magic to wait on making a final decision, but neither Aminu nor Isaac are expected to participate in the restart. Aminu last played on November 29.

Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Magic are tied for having the worst odds (+25000) to win the NBA Championship.
