Remains out indefinitely Isaac (hamstring) is out Friday at Atlanta and remains sidelined indefinitely.

Impact Isaac is still limited in practice, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to return soon. He won't be close to playing in a game until he gets some full practice in, and it's not clear when that will happen. It would be surprising if he returned this month.

Won't play Wednesday Isaac (hamstring) won't play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Pistons, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact Isaac hasn't appeared in an NBA game since January 2020, having endured a longer-than-anticipated recovery from an ACL tear suffered in August of that year before undergoing surgery on his right hamstring last March. His ongoing recovery from the hamstring surgery limited his activity in practice throughout training camp and sidelined him for all of Orlando's preseason matchups, so he'll likely be in line to miss multiple games to begin the regular season. Even though Isaac signed a four-year contract extension in December 2021, his checkered injury history along with the selection of Paolo Banchero with the No. 1 overall pick in this past summer's draft hint that Isaac may no longer be viewed as a foundational piece for the Magic.

Unable to suit up Friday Isaac (hamstring) remained sidelined for Friday's preseason finale versus the Cavaliers.

Impact Isaac was limited during camp but never took part in preseason action. It will be worth keeping an eye on his status as the regular-season opener draws closer Wednesday against the Pistons.

Not suiting up Tuesday Isaac (hamstring) remains sidelined for Tuesday's preseason game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Issa's hamstring issue has plagued him throughout training camp and the preseason and it's unclear at this point when he will be ready to retake the floor. He has just one more opportunity to do so before the regular season arrives Oct. 19 against the Pistons.

Limited to individual work for now Magic President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman said Monday that Isaac (hamstring) won't participate in full team practices at the start of training camp, Khobi Price of the...

Impact While Isaac continues to progress in his recovery following hamstring surgery, he is still working through the individual phase of his rehabilitation and remains without a timetable as far as when he'll be able to rejoin team practices. The Magic seem optimistic that Isaac will be available at some point during the 2022-23 campaign, but for the time being, he'll continue his individual work on the side when the team opens camp this week. Orlando will face Detroit in its regular-season opener Oct. 19.

Impact An ACL tear and a subsequent hamstring issue requiring surgery have kept Isaac off the court since January of 2020. According to Weltman, the team's focus is on getting Isaac back to where he was before the surgery. The now-24-year-old was impressive during his 34 appearances in 2019-20, as he averaged 11.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.3 blocks, 1.6 steals and 1.4 assists in 28.8 minutes. When he finally steps back on the court, it seems likely he'll come off the bench behind Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero.
