Isaac ended with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one block across three minutes during Saturday's 120-117 victory over Utah.
EDGE Analysis
Isaac continues to play a minimal role, having now logged no more than 15 minutes in 15 of his past 16 appearances. At this point, it's hard to consider him an every-night part of the rotation, eliminating all of his fantasy appeal. In 41 games thus far, he has averaged just 2.8 points and 2.5 rebounds in 10.1 minutes per contest.

Isaac tallied four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks across 17 minutes Wednesday in the Magic's 133-124 win over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
After playing just 12 total minutes over the Magic's previous five contests, Isaac resurfaced in head coach Jamahl Mosley's rotation Wednesday. He made a strong case for sticking with the second unit on a regular basis. With four defensive counters on the night, Isaac ranked second to only Anthony Black (four steals, two blocks) among Magic players. The Magic aren't likely to count on Isaac to offer much on the offensive end. However, the defensive disruptiveness that he showcased Wednesday could be enough for him to regain traction in the rotation, especially while younger forwards such as Tristan da Silva and Noah Penda have seen their productivity dwindle in recent games.

Isaac (coach's decision) didn't appear off the bench in Thursday's 118-111 win over the Grizzlies in Berlin.
EDGE Analysis
After seeing no more than 12 minutes while appearing in each of the previous five games, Isaac dropped out of the rotation entirely Thursday as the Magic welcomed Franz Wagner (ankle) back into the lineup following a 16-game absence. While he remains a versatile defensive piece and has enjoyed relatively good health over the past two seasons, Isaac has seen his offensive efficiency crater since he posted a career-best 61.0 true shooting percentage in 2023-24. He's holding down a 52.6 true shooting percentage so far in 2025-26, and his lack of offensive impact could be enough to cost him a regular role on the second unit moving forward.

Isaac (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Isaac will power through his illness, and he could see a slight uptick in minutes Sunday with Wendell Carter (hip) unavailable. Isaac is averaging 3.1 points and 2.8 rebounds per game this season.

Isaac is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Pelicans due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Isaac is feeling under the weather and might not be able to give it a go Sunday. If he is forced to the sidelines, Jett Howard could pick up some extra minutes, and Jamal Cain could have the opportunity to get into the rotation. Check back closer to tipoff for official word on Isaac's status.

Isaac (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Isaac will shed his questionable tag and return to action after missing Wednesday's win over Indiana due to left knee soreness. With the 28-year-old forward back in the lineup, Jamal Cain and Noah Penda are candidates to see a decline in playing time.

Isaac is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to left knee soreness.
EDGE Analysis
The forward could go through pregame warmups to test out his knee before the Magic decide on his status. If Isaac can't play, Tristan da Silva would be in line for an uptick in playing time in the Orlando frontcourt.

Isaac (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, Jason Beede of the Orlando Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
After exiting Monday's loss to Toronto and not returning, Isaac will miss Wednesday's contest due to left knee soreness. The 28-year-old forward's next opportunity to play will come Friday against Chicago. Jamal Cain and Noah Penda are candidates for increased minutes with Isaac sidelined.

Isaac (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Left knee soreness is clouding Isaac's status for Wednesday. Jamal Cain and Noah Penda would likely help pick up the slack if Isaac is unable to suit up against Indiana.

Isaac (knee) didn't return to Monday's 107-106 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Isaac wasn't feeling quite right during his first stint off the bench, and he wasn't utilized the rest of the way after being diagnosed with left knee soreness. The big man finished with no counting stats in 29 seconds of action. He can be considered day-to-day until further notice.
