Jonathan Isaac shines in return, helps lift Magic to victory

Jonathan Isaac hadn’t been seen on the court since Jan. 1 when he suffered a knee injury. Markelle Fultz hadn’t been seen on the court since March when the NBA season was paused.
With 3:27 remaining in the first quarter of the Magic’s final scrimmage before games begin to count, Isaac and Fultz, the two pieces many consider the most valuable of the Magic’s young core, both made their returns.
The Magic would score the next 19 points of the game.
