The Orlando Magic’s notoriously deep front court grows shorter and shorter from game to game.
Al Farouq-Aminu has long since been sidelined following knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus. Jonathan Isaac’s devastating injury has sidelined him indefinitely as well. Now, Aaron Gordon joins them on the sideline following Kyle Lowry’s flagrant foul on Thursday night.
The Magic, having lost two straight, aren’t necessarily in trouble. The Washington Wizards have shown no signs of challenging them for the play-in spot and could be eliminated as soon as today against the New Orleans Pelicans.
