MIAMI — Magic coach Scott Skiles said that PF Ersan IIyasova will not play Friday night against the Miami Heat because of a sprained shoulder.
Ilyasova, wearing a sling on his right arm, is out for an undermined time with a sprain to the sternoclavicular joint in his right shoulder.
IIyasova said after Thursday's practice that he felt better. He said he was injured Wednesday night in a collision while going for a loose ball against the Detroit Pistons, his former team until the trade deadline.
