JONATHAN ISAAC NEWS

Season-best performance off bench Isaac posted 20 points (8-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two blocks and an assist in 27 minutes during Sunday's 102-99 win over the 76ers.

Impact Isaac logged his first double-double since 2019, along with season highs in points and rebounds in the narrow victory, marking undoubtedly his best outing of the year. With Franz Wagner (oblique) expected to remain sidelined for an extended period of time and Tristan da Silva (illness) leaving Sunday's game early, Isaac has an opportunity to continue building off the performance, especially if da Silva misses further time. However, he'll still find himself jostling with Caleb Houstan, who started Sunday, for minutes even if da Silva remains out going forward. His next chance to take the court comes Wednesday against the Bucks.

Nears double-double Monday Isaac ended Monday's 103-94 win over the Knicks with 13 points (4-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 25 minutes.

Impact Isaac was a standout performer off the bench as Orlando secured a comfortable win Monday despite being shorthanded. Isaac is likely to continue playing as a member of the second unit, but the lack of frontcourt depth could lead to an increase in his minutes in the short-term picture.

Pulls down nine boards Isaac logged five points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal across 19 minutes during Sunday's 102-101 victory over the Nets.

Impact This was Isaac's fourth game of the regular season with at least nine rebounds. His role continues to leave a lot to be desired, limiting him to a rebounding and shot-blocking specialist in fantasy formats with 4.7 boards and 1.3 blocks in just 16.7 minutes per contest.

Plays 15 minutes in return Isaac (hamstring) tallied three points (1-1 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 15 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 100-91 loss to the Knicks.

Impact After missing the Magic's last three games with a right hamstring strain, Isaac made his return to action Sunday and, as usual, offered most of his value on the defensive end. Though Paolo Banchero (oblique) still looks to be at least a week away from being cleared to play, Isaac may not get the chance to see his minutes ramp up dramatically while the Magic deploy Wendell Carter as their starting power forward.

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

Impact As expected, Isaac has been upgraded from probable to available and will suit up after missing the previous three games due to a right hamstring injury. Ove his last 12 appearances, Isaac has averaged 19.1 minutes per game.

Probable to play Sunday Isaac (hamstring) is probable for Sunday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Isaac has missed Orlando's last three outings due to a right hamstring injury, but his involvement in practice Friday suggests he should be available to return to the hardwood Sunday. Isaac is averaging 6.5 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game this season, so he shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside, especially since he's played off the bench in his 21 regular-season appearances.

He's been a shot-blocking specialist in fantasy to open the season, averaging 1.4 swats in just 17.2 minutes per game.
