ORLANDO – Undoubtedly, one of the major storylines of tonight’s game between the Orlando Magic and the Philadelphia 76ers will be the return of a key, two-way player expected to have a major impact on his squad going forward this season.
While that is certainly true of Jimmy Butler, who is expected to make his return to game action tonight after being traded from Minnesota to Philadelphia, it is also the case with Orlando’s Jonathan Isaac.
Isaac, whose brief NBA career has been filled with stops and starts because of a series of ankle injuries, will be back in action tonight following a six-game lay off when the Magic (6-8) face the new-look 76ers (9-6) at Amway Center.
