Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon exited Wednesday’s 109-99 loss to the Toronto Raptors early in the third quarter because of left hamstring tightness, the team announced. He did not return.
The injury occurred after a hard foul by Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry prevented a dunk and caused Gordon’s left leg to extend high as he was falling. After a review, Lowry’s foul was upgraded to a flagrant 1. Gordon and Lowry exchanged words during the review.
Gordon, 24, entered the game averaging 14.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 3.7 assists.
