He’s already been ruled out.

If the Magic win tonight, they’ll have a rematch with JJJ and the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday.

If they lose, they’ll close their time in Vegas tomorrow against Oklahoma City.

Wow Ayton 6 pts and 6 TO's in 25 minutes. If he can't score big and rebound he's going to be a liability.

He'll get into a rhytym on offense, but defensively he'll never be as good as JJJ, WCJ, or Bamba. If their was a redraft I'm not sure that JJJ or WCJ would go No. 1.

Lol. Shame they would sit Bamba too. Most all of the rookies are still playing at this point.

Bamba looked to get tired quickly in the games I saw. There are other ways to get in shape than meaningless games.

Isaac has shown us enough.

I’m kinda glad they are sitting out.

Horrible news. Thousands (okay maybe hundreds) of dihard fans were looking forward all day to watch them play and they sit them because of "soreness"... ridiculous.. its like the only opportunity for months for the fans to watch them play. Well, nothing to see hear, no reason to watch the game.

I’d understand it if this was the second night of a back-to-back, but they’ve had two days off.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Knew it was coming. Don't want to look too much into this, things change, quickly, but Clifford said he thought it was super valuable for them to play as much as possible, I guess 3 games in 9 days is as much as is possible? Did Bamba even play an entire actual hour of basketball during that stretch?

Was hoping they would play but had a feeling they might be held out. It doesn't really mean a lot but reps are reps...
