Jonathan Isaac News, Rumors, Updates - Orlando Magic

Barely touched floor in loss Isaac notched no counting stats across zero minutes during Friday's 111-107 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Isaac played just nine seconds in the loss, a worrying sign for a player with very little wiggle room when it comes to minutes and production. He was the 11th man in the rotation, and at this point, it appears as though he is going to be used sparingly by the coaching staff. There is no reason to be holding him in any formats.

Plays well off bench Isaac produced 13 points (6-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and two blocks in 13 minutes of Thursday's 132-125 preseason win over New Orleans.

Impact Isaac made the most of his limited minutes Thursday, showing some nice touch around the rim and his shot-blocking prowess as well. Although Isaac is a solid per-minute fantasy producer in category leagues, minutes may be hard to come by in Orlando's loaded frontcourt.

With second unit Isaac is coming off the bench in Thursday's preseason finale against the Pelicans, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact After seeing 15.4 minutes per game in the regular season, Isaac saw a reduced role in the playoffs with 13.8 minutes per night.

His per-minute production was excellent from a fantasy perspective, though he did shoot just 25.8 percent from beyond the arc. With a full offseason ahead, Isaac could make another positive step in 2025-26.

APRIL 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sees just eight minutes Isaac ended Wednesday's 116-108 loss to Houston with two points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one block and two steals in eight minutes.

Impact Isaac has now been held to single-digit minutes in three straight contests. He does have a combined two blocks and five steals during that span, but he's miles off the fantasy radar in standard formats with these types of workloads.

MARCH 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Isaac (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

Impact Isaac has shaken off a questionable tag and will return to action after missing Friday's loss to the Grizzlies due to a non-COVID illness. He's averaged only 3.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 0.6 blocks across 15.0 minutes per game in seven February appearances.

Questionable to play Sunday Isaac (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Wizards, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact Isaac missed Friday's loss to the Grizzlies with a non-COVID illness, but it seems it wasn't a severe problem, as the questionable tag suggests he might have a shot at playing after the one-game absence. Even if he's available, Isaac's return should create a lot of waves in fantasy. He's averaging only 3.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 0.6 blocks across 15.0 minutes per game in seven February appearances.
