Mon Dec 4 2023 | 22:26 | Jonathan Isaac Expected To Play On Wednesday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) reportedly looked good during practice on Monday. The young forward is hopeful to get back on the court for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Isaac was forced to miss their last game against the Brooklyn Nets due to this issue. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Magic be cautious with their oft-injured forward and hold him out on Wednesday. Fantasy managers will have to check for another update on Tuesday. |

Sat Dec 2 2023 | 13:23 | Jonathan Isaac Questionable Versus The Nets |
Orlando Magic Forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) could miss Saturday's meeting with the Brooklyn Nets. He's on the injury report because of a right ankle sprain. However, fantasy managers are used to Isaac carrying various injury designations over the last few seasons, so his absence wouldn't be surprising by any means. The 26-year-old has averaged only 6.3 points this season, meaning he likely wouldn't be featured in many fantasy lineups. Yet, without Isaac on the floor, the Magic would be missing one of their elite defensive options. |

Fri Dec 1 2023 | 10:41 | Jonathan Isaac Tagged As Questionable On Friday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) received the questionable tag again on Friday for their game against the Washington Wizards. The 26-year-old has battled quite a few injuries over the years but has surpassed the number of appearances he made last season. In his limited playing time, he's posted averages of 6.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game. If he continues to trend upwards, he'll play his way back to fantasy relevance. Right now, he plays more of a depth role and would take some minutes away from Joe Ingles and Gary Harris if he suits up. |

Wed Nov 29 2023 | 09:57 | Jonathan Isaac Questionable For Wednesday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's encounter with the Wizards. He missed Sunday's clash with Charlotte due to ankle soreness and could be unavailable again, as the team will likely want to be extra careful with the injury-prone big man. Isaac has averaged less than 40 games per season for his four-year NBA career. Fortunately, the 26-year-old has missed just three games so far this season. He's primarily used as a defensive presence, and Isaac has registered 1.3 blocks per game in 13.9 minutes while also managing 6.6 points and 4.4 rebounds. Caleb Houstan has received a bump in playing time without Isaac, but he's not someone fantasy managers should target. |

Thu Nov 9 2023 | 10:01 | Jonathan Isaac Probable For Thursday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (hamstring) looks set to return to the lineup Thursday against Atlanta, with the team listing him as probable for the contest. Isaac missed his second game of the season Monday versus Dallas. Caleb Houstan saw extra action in his absence but will likely have to give up the minutes again Thursday. Isaac is a versatile talent, but we haven't seen much of him in 2023-24, as the 26-year-old has averaged only 11.2 minutes. He'll definitely need more minutes on the court to become fantasy-relevant. |

Mon Nov 6 2023 | 17:27 | Jonathan Isaac Will Be Sidelined On Monday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (hamstring) has been ruled out by head coach Jamahl Mosely for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Isaac has only played more than 12 minutes one time this season, so his absence shouldn't shuffle around the rotation that much. Joe Ingles may see some extra time off of the bench while Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero will probably play heavy minutes. Isaac's next chance to take the floor will be on Thursday. |

Wed Nov 1 2023 | 20:39 | Jonathan Isaac Available On Thursday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (rest) will be available for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The oft-injured forward was rested on Tuesday, which was the second game of a back-to-back set. It sounds like Isaac will play on Thursday, but it's hard to imagine him getting significant minutes in the rotation. The Magic continue to play it extremely safe with Isaac, so his fantasy value is limited right now. |

Mon Oct 2 2023 | 14:22 | Jonathan Isaac Expected To Fully Participate In Training Camp |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac has been missing action since February of last season due to a left adductor surgery. General Manager Jeff Weltman said that Isaac will be a full participant once training camp opens and they'll also closely monitor his health due to his injury history so far. While this is encouraging news, his health hasn't been the best bet for fantasy managers. He might be worth a very late-round flyer, but that depends on how training camp and preseason progresses. |

Tue Apr 11 2023 | 09:47 | Jonathan Isaac Expects To Be Ready For Next Season |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (thigh) expects to be ready for the start of the 2023-24 campaign, reports Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel. Isaac expects to be "full go" for basketball activities in a few weeks, so he'll have plenty of time to gear up for the new season. The 25-year-old, who was a top-six pick in the 2017 draft, has run into horrible injury troubles in recent seasons. Back in January, he was able to return to game action for the first time in two and a half years, but Isaac suffered another injury after playing in just 11 games. He averaged 5.0 points with 4.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 11.3 minutes. |

Fri Mar 3 2023 | 17:51 | Jonathan Isaac Done For The Season |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (groin) will miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old underwent surgery on Friday to repair a torn left adductor muscle, resulting in a premature end to another season. Isaac had played only 11 games in 2022-23 after being sidelined since the 2019-20 campaign because of knee and hamstring injuries, averaging 5.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 blocks and 1.1 steals. However, it's unknown what the future holds for the 2017 No. 6 overall pick, although his days in Orlando may be over. |

Sat Feb 25 2023 | 18:23 | Jonathan Isaac To Sit On Saturday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The 25-year-old played a season-high 16 minutes during Thursday's contest. That being said, the Magic are going to play it safe and hold Isaac out of this game for rest purposes. Isaac is going to have limited fantasy value going forward because the team plans to bring him along slowly. Moritz Wagner and Chuma Okeke should see more minutes with Isaac on the sideline here. Neither player is a great streaming option, so fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help on Saturday. |

Wed Feb 1 2023 | 14:46 | Jonathan Isaac Questionable Wednesday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) has been downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Philadelphia. He has only just returned from a knee injury and could sit out the contest for injury management purposes. Isaac missed two whole seasons before returning to the court on Jan. 23 versus Boston. For obvious reasons, he has played a very small role on the team, averaging only nine minutes per game. The 25-year-old has averaged 5.5 points across four games with 2.8 rebounds and 1.5 steals. Bol Bol should see a few extra minutes Wednesday if Isaac isn't in the lineup. |

He won't be much of a fantasy option until he can play more minutes. |

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (injury management) has been ruled out for Friday's game due to injury management for his left knee. Isaac has already been on a minutes restriction since he's returned for two games so far and they'll likely proceed with more caution as the season goes on. The 25-year-old has been one of their coveted prospects, but he's only played a total of 34 games over the last three seasons. Fantasy managers will want to wait for Isaac to get off of the minutes restriction before adding him to any starting lineups. |

Mon Jan 23 2023 | 21:54 | Jonathan Isaac Plays Well In Return |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) made his return to the court Monday in a big win over the Boston Celtics. Isaac played for the first time in over two years and posted 10 points, three rebounds, two three-pointers, and two steals in just 10 minutes. Isaac is expected to be on heavy minute restrictions for the near future, but he was the first player off the bench on Monday which is an encouraging sign. Isaac holds immense upside given his versatility, but it remains capped as he will likely be sitting on back-to-backs and heavily monitored over the remainder of the season. |

Mon Jan 23 2023 | 18:01 | Jonathan Isaac Officially Cleared For Monday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) has been officially cleared to play in Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. This is fantastic news as Isaac last appeared in an NBA game over 900 days ago. The 25-year-old hasn't suited up for action since tearing his ACL during the Orlando bubble. That being said, the Magic are going to have Isaac on a heavy minutes limit. The expectation is that he's going to play 8-10 minutes during his first game back. The Magic are going to be extremely cautious with the injury-prone forward. The potential is there, but fantasy managers are going to have to wait awhile before Isaac is back at full speed again. |

Sun Jan 22 2023 | 14:08 | Jonathan Isaac Expected To Play On Monday |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) is expected to play on Monday against the Celtics. The 25-year-old has averaged 9.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks throughout his NBA career. However, he has missed over two seasons due to injury. As a result, Isaac will likely be eased back into a full workload, so fantasy managers shouldn't anticipate him to be a consistent contributor anytime soon. That said, as long as he remains healthy, the potential is there for those willing to stash him. |

Mon May 9 2022 | 23:57 | Jonathan Isaac Hopeful He'll Be Back For Camp |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee, hamstring) hopes he'll be ready for training camp. Isaac was selected with the No. 6 overall pick during the 2017 NBA Draft. He averaged 9.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.5 blocks, and 1.1 steals throughout only 136 appearances. He hasn't played since the 2019-20 season after dealing with numerous knee ailments and a hamstring injury sustained during rehab. Nonetheless, while Isaac has the potential to be an efficient player, he will need to remain healthy before being considered for any fantasy format. Yet, even if the 24-year-old can stay on the floor, he'll have plenty of competition for minutes moving ahead, so his upside is expected to be limited. |

Mon Sep 6 2021 | 13:41 | Jonathan Isaac Uncertain When He Will Return |
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) isn't sure if he will be ready to go when the season begins in October. The 23-year-old missed the entire 2020-21 campaign after tearing his ACL and meniscus in his left knee. Isaac has been a capable producer throughout the years, but his poor health has significantly lowered his ceiling. Still, he is worth a late-round stash in deeper formats, although he will have to fight for minutes against Franz Wagner, Moritz Wager, Chuma Okeke, Wendell Carter Jr., and Mo Bamba upon returning to the court. |
