This is not good and could really hurt the Magic's playoff chances.

Expect to see Troy Caupain with The Magic just about all the rest of the way.

Ffs...

How long do meniscus tears typically knock players out for? I have zero interest in watching Grant play another minute

As crazy as this sounds... the playoff run was nice while it lasted... that's how much Grant sucks.

I said nearly that exact thing, except when DJ went down.

It all depends on how significant the damage is. If he has it scoped, it could be anywhere from a couple weeks to the remainder of the season.

It was obviously bothering him as they did an MRI, but he could probably play on it now if he wanted to. Small tears can become big ones though and I'm sure we will be exceedingly cautious with him.

Grant was +13 in the Cavs game, to lead the team. Stats are a funny thing.

I doubt it happens but if Briscoe is gone for the rest of the season then we should sign a point guard. Teodosic seems to be desperate to get out of the NBA so maybe someone like Canaan who just got released.
