If the Magic don’t waive him, he is guaranteed $17.4 million per over the next 2 seasons. He will be 27 and going into his ninth year in the league when this deal expires.


I think they have given Isaac enough money to not play basketball already.

It's time to move on.

Seriously! I mean Timofey Mozgov only got paid 30M by Orlando to not play basketball. Shouldn't that be the ceiling of these things?

Walker will take Isaac's role.

I could get behind this but there'd better be some FA/trade fireworks in the backcourt if so

I'm generally a Magic player homer and I love JI on the court (no comment on the off-the-court stuff), but the man can't stay on the court. I don't see how any team can give him another contract beyond the one-year variety. 2 fully missed years and 3 other significantly shortened years out of 6, that's insane. And I get they have been different injuries, but I'm not sure that's better, in fact it might be worse. It shows he's made of glass and I can't imagine that changing at this point.
