Decidedly, the body of Jonathan Isaac does not want to leave him alone.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski ESPNthe Magic winger suffered a torn left adductor, an injury requiring surgery and which is therefore synonymous with the end of the season.

Unfortunately, it’s a refrain we’re used to hearing with Jonathan Isaac, whose list of injuries is as long as his arms. As a reminder, before his return in January, Isaac hadn’t played since August 2020, when the NBA found itself in the Orlando anti-COVID bubble. During all this time, the Orlando player was in rehabilitation to repair a ruptured knee ligament, to which was also added a small hamstring injury.
Another extended stint in the infirmary therefore awaits Jonathan Isaac, who has only been able to play 11 games this year for stats of 5 points, 4 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 11.3 minutes of play. stop for the one who had established himself as one of the most formidable defensive players on the circuit before his injuries.
“Our hearts go out to Jonathan, who has unique moral strength to face adversity. Jonathan has worked extremely hard to get back on the pitch this season and has shown his impact on the team. We will be by his side to face the work that awaits him.”
– Magic President Jeff Weltman
