Indiana Pacers — Orlando Magic

It's unclear why McConnell is sitting out the scrimmage. The veteran point guard can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against the Timberwolves until the Pacers offer an update on his status.

It's unclear why the 28-year-old isn't participating in Sunday's scrimmage, and he's joined by T.J. McConnell (undisclosed), Larry Nance (hamstring) and Johnny Furphy (knee) on the sidelines. Jackson can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against Minnesota until further notice.

Nance has been limited in training camp thus far due to a hamstring injury, though there's optimism he'll be a full participant soon, per East. The veteran big man can be considered questionable for Wednesday's preseason opener against Minnesota until more information comes to light.

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.
