Jonathan Isaac (knee) sitting out Friday for Magic
Orlando Magic power forward Jonathan Isaac (left knee injury management) will not play Friday versus the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
The Magic are going to continue to exercise extreme caution with Isaac as he returns from an ACL tear, which includes holding him out of the front end of a back-to-back on Friday. He has been limited to 8-10 minutes in his first two games after being inactive for over 900 days. Bol Bol or Mo Bamba could see a few more minutes versus the Heat.
Isaac has a 28.7% usage rate and is averaging 2.02 FanDuel points per minute through 18 minutes of play.
