Only a giraffe that moves like a lion could put up numbers like this
Jonathan Isaac on Wednesday night fully lived up to the half-giraffe, half-lion nickname that Terrence Ross bestowed upon him a few weeks back. Displaying his length, speed, agility and defensive instincts, Isaac had 13 points, 10 rebounds, a career-high six blocks, five assists and four steals in the Magic’s 107-106 loss to the Mavericks.
The 22-year-old became just the third player since the 1983-1984 season to record 13-plus points, 10-plus rebounds, 6-plus blocks, 5-plus assists and 4-plus steals, joining Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon and Ralph Sampson.
