ORLANDO – The Orlando Magic suffered a blow on Friday when an MRI revealed a small meniscus tear in reserve point guard Isaiah Briscoe’s right knee.
Briscoe, a rookie who brought steadiness to the Magic’s reserves after being inserted into the regular rotation back on Jan. 9, missed Friday’s game against the Dallas Mavericks. Treatment options, such as surgery or rehabilitation, are still be evaluated and there is no firm timetable on his return. The rookie point guard has averaged 3.5 points, 2.2 assists and 1.9 rebounds in 14.3 minutes a night over 39 games.
