Injury report

Orlando Magic

  • Anthony BlackQuestionable· back Oct 7
    Report note

    Black is being held out of practices as a precaution, and it remains to be seen if this will impact Black's availability for the start of preseason. At this point, it's hard to imagine this minor setback jeopardizing his status for Opening Night.

    Cost -2.1 per 100
  • Jonathan IsaacProbable· back Oct 7
    Report note

    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.

    Cost -0.3 per 100
  • Noah PendaQuestionable· back Oct 7
    Report note

    There aren't many details yet, but it sounds like a minor issue that the Magic will handle carefully. It's unclear if this will linger into the preseason. Orlando's first exhibition is scheduled for Oct. 7.
