Magic's Jonathan Isaac (ACL) "getting stronger"
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ACL) is "encouraged by his progress" and is getting "better and stronger," per Roy Parry of the Orlando Sentinel.
Isaac is now six months removed from initially tearing his ACL, but said he likes "getting in and grinding every day," and that "this (his recovery) is my game right now". Isaac has dealt with several injuries so far in his young career, but has steadily grown and improved each year when on the court.
With Isaac sidelined for the 2020-21 season, teammate Nikola Vucevic has been enjoying a career-year, averaging a career-best 22.6 points per game while shooting 44.1% from three and averaging 10.9 rebounds per game. Vucevic is currently projected to score 45.2 fantasy points in Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors.
