Orlando Magic bei Miami Heat

Head coach Sean Sweeney said Friday that Black has "definitely made progress" throughout the week and is now performing non-contact work at a high, full-speed level. The Magic remain encouraged by the guard's recovery, though he'll likely need to resume contact work before being cleared for full participation.

Isaac suffered his left knee sprain late in the 2025-26 regular season and missed Orlando's entire first-round playoff series against Detroit. The veteran forward said he spent the summer rehabbing his knee and isn't fully ready for camp, though he indicated that the expectation is for him to be fine. His activity level will be worth monitoring as the preseason approaches.

Head coach Sean Sweeney said Friday that Penda is "pretty close to being back and ready to go," offering an encouraging update after the second-year forward tweaked his hamstring shortly before camp. Penda remains day-to-day, but the latest update suggests he could return to full practice in the near future.

This is a tough blow for the point guard who was penciled in as the top backup behind Davion Mitchell. If he indeed misses a couple weeks, he could be back in time for their final preseason contest Oct. 16.

This is a tough blow for Johnson as it rules him out for the entire preseason. The forward is on a two-way contract and is expected to feature for Miami's G League affiliate.
