Whatever one might think about his conservative politics and anti-vax perspectives, I think we can all agree that it’s sad to see a talented athlete have nearly four years of his prime wiped away by injury.

Due to a couple of injuries, the later being an ACL injury, during the bubble, Isaac only played 34 games in the 2019/20 season and then missed the 2020/21 and 2021/22 season.

He returned in 2022/23, but got a torn left adductor muscle after only playing 11 games.

As of tonight’s win over Boston, Issac has played 14 games playing reserve minutes but posting a respectable 17/11 per36 with impressive 2.5 steals per36 and 3.6 blocks per36.

That means he has played more games this year than the last three seasons combined and is on pace to play more games than the last FOUR seasons combined.

It’s a shame he missed so much time in the years when he really would have been coming into his own and when he seemed to be developing, but here’s to hoping that his health holds up from here on out.

    I’m not rooting for a bigot who’s only in the league because the team he plays for also use him as a political sock puppet……NBA should investigate

        I think another team would’ve been traded him for cap relief or another player in a heartbeat. What other team would stick with a player for THREE SEASONS with the limited games he played???

    This thread is full of the typical numbskulls that would be fans of Jonathan Isaac. Jumping through so many hoops to be a victim. Pathetic, sad, embarrassing. If you consider yourself a fan of Jonathan Isaac, you seriously need to evaluate your life and examine your priorities. Because you’re not a fan of his basketball playing.

    The discussions in this thread are enough for it to be reasonable to get rid of Jonathan Isaac in the NBA. I do not wanna talk about this shit everytime this fucker has ten rebounds. Absolutely loved the years he wasn’t playing.

    Interesting factoid:

    fac·toid [ˈfaktɔɪd] NOUN an item of unreliable information that is reported and repeated so often that it becomes accepted as fact

    Literally the opposite of a fact.
