Anytime there’s a chance to talk about Jonathan Isaac, count me in. And given Isaac’s ability to log at least five-times value in eight of his last ten games, including four games of at least six-times value, the versatile youngster should be a hot topic.

Isaac has been a value play with his ability to contribute on both ends of the floor. In addition to scoring double digits in all but two of his last ten, Isaac is logging a steal and two blocks a night over the same span. And it’s no coincidence that Orlando has rattled off seven wins in their last eight games.

Don’t look now, but the Magic are in contention for a playoff spot, and it lends a hand that a future pillar of the franchise has the unique opportunity to develop with added minutes while also providing his team a boost by way of versatile production.

Isaac and the Magic take on Chicago tonight, followed by games against Toronto, New York, and Golden State.
