Aaron Gordon will not be at the Orlando Magic’s disposal for the game against the Houston Rockets, the team announced on Friday.
The high-flying forward will likely make his return to the game against the Dallas Mavericks Saturday. With Gordon out, Orlando’s front-line becomes thinner, especially with Jonathan Isaac out for the whole season.
Gordon averaged 13.9 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists across eight appearances this season. He missed only 15 games in the span of the last two seasons.
With Gordon out, Gary Clark is expected to get significant minutes at the 4, while Nikola Vucevic and Khem Birch could also share the floor in ‘bigger’ lineups.
