Magic: Jonathan Isaac (knee) out another 2-3 weeks
Orlando Magic power forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks to determine if he will be able to play again this season, per head coach Steve Clifford.
"In terms of will [Isaac] be ready, I don’t think we’ll know that for 2-to-3 weeks," said Clifford. "He’s not able to play 5-on-5 yet. He’s made great progress, he’s a terrific worker, so I couldn’t say enough good things about him. It’ll be difficult to know for a couple more weeks." Most reports have indicated Isaac will not be able to make it back for the NBA's restart, but there's still a chance he returns. Isaac last played on January 1.
Nikola Vucevic leads the team with a 26.8 percent usage rate when Isaac is off the court this season. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Magic are tied for having the worst odds (+25000) to win the NBA Championship.
