Magic's Aaron Gordon to miss 3rd straight game with hip flexor
Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon will miss his third straight game Saturday against the Washington Wizards because of a strained left hip flexor, the team announced.
Gordon is averaging a team-leading 18.4 points per game this season. It was announced Friday that he would be returning to compete in the Slam Dunk contest during NBA All-Star Weekend for a third time.
He attempted to go through a practice Friday, but he was forced to exit with some lingering pain in the hip.
