The Magic rolled to a 132-116 victory, their second successive win of the restart. They remain in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, half a game ahead of the Brooklyn Nets.

Isaac previously injured his left knee in a January 1 game against the Washington Wizards. That injury kept him out of Orlando's remaining 31 games before the March 11 league shutdown.
