ORLANDO – An Orlando Magic team severely shorthanded because of injuries hoped for a bit of relief and reinforcements on Friday, but it instead got neither as Evan Fournier, Aaron Gordon and Jonathan Isaac were missing once again.
Fournier missed his seventh straight games with a right ankle sprain, while Gordon was out a third consecutive game because of a calf strain. Isaac, who missed 17 straight games from Nov. 12 through Dec. 15 with a sprained right ankle, reinjured the joint on Wednesday in Chicago and was also unable to play Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
