The Orlando Magic have the look of the next Eastern Conference power as they’ve got a talented young core of versatile forwards that fit the mold of the modern NBA.
Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are the Magic’s franchise cornerstones at the forward positions, while they’ve also got exciting young options like Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black as their guards.
Another piece to the puzzle is Jonathan Isaac who has struggled with injuries but was able to return to the court and help Orlando in their playoff run during the 2023-24 NBA season.
Isaac, when healthy, is one of the most versatile defenders in the league and one of the few players who can legitimately guard all five positions on the floor.
The Magic recognized this and signed him to a five-year, $84 million contract this offseason which ensures he’ll be part of their core group going forward.
Ahead of the 2024-25 NBA season, Isaac unveiled his new signature shoes via NBA Central.

Isaac is a devout Christian who has spoken openly about his faith in the past and that’s reflected in the shoes as he’s got a verse from the Book of Psalms on the heel.
It looks like there are two colorways of the shoe, both in Orlando’s primary colors of white and blue.
The new shoes are a clean look and Isaac will surely be donning these pairs throughout the upcoming regular season though how he plays in them will be more of interest to the Magic fans.
