Jonathan Isaac played just seven minutes on Monday. And yet, he was trending on Twitter.
That’s what happens when it’s your first time in an NBA game in over seven months and you come out in instant All-Star form.
Isaac had 13 points, seven rebounds and two steals; he shot 5-for-6 from the field, knocking down both three-point attempts, one of which he got fouled on; and teamed with Markelle Fultz to power the Magic on a 22-2 run.
That is a jam-packed seven minutes.
Twitter responded. And as always, the tweets speak for themselves...

He’s back.
#Magic are on a 22-2 run since Jonathan Isaac and Markelle Fultz entered the game. They have 18 of those 22 points.

This 21-2 run by the Magic is brought to you by the firm of Isaac and Fultz

in only his first 5 minutes. oh yeah and the magic have gone on a 23-2 run since he checked in
Jonathan Isaac doesn't look much like a player who's been sidelined since New Year's Day by a knee injury. He's been the best player on the court since he checked in, including a four-point play.

Is there still time for Jonathan Isaac to make that MIP/DPOY case, because uh

It's good the NBA closed the MVP voting now and the 8 seeding games don't count otherwise Jonathan Isaac was coming for that thing.

Anyone opposed to trading all the picks for Jonathan Isaac?

Jonathan single handeledly destroying the Nuggets single handedly OH MY GOD FULTZ FOR 3. I’m gonna need a doctor.

Jonathan Isaac and Markelle Fultz are the future of the Orlando Magic.
— Michelle (@michellebgl_) July 27, 2020
I've been saying it and I'll say it again.
You gotta wonder if Fultz and Isaac will split too many MVP votes next year for one of them to win the award. Oh well, it's a team game.

Hope you still have some of your Jonathan Isaac stock

jonathan isaac would’ve won defensive player of the year this season if he hadn’t gotten injured.
Jonathan Isaac is a 7 footer that can lock down anyone in the league and score from anywhere. Basketball was literally invented for Isaac.

All I'm saying is they better give my boy Jonathan Isaac some national coverage/spotlight for his game today
— Huncho Hoops (@HunchoHoops) July 27, 2020
He already deserves some love in just 8 minutes
Join the bandwagon now before it's too late
if you weren’t here for The Magic at their Andrew Nicholson you don’t deserve them at their Jonathan Isaac
— beyond the RK (@beyondtheRK) July 28, 2020
I just want Jonathan Isaac on the Hawks because he’s one of like the 3 players than can slow down John Collins
— Grant Shirley (@Grant_Shirley4) July 28, 2020
Don’t want the Celtics to play Orlando in the first round solely on the fact that playing against Jonathan Isaac is probably the most annoying thing possible

I’d sell my left nut to have Jonathan Isaac on the Pacers
