Dallas Mavericks 86, Orlando Magic 74

The Dallas Mavericks beat the Orlando Magic on Monday afternoon, 86-74, but the story was Magic rookie Jonathan Isaac.
The No. 6 overall pick in this year's draft accumulated eight points, nine rebounds, two blocks and a steal in 22 minutes of play but was taken out of the game after one half with a sore hip, per Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel.
Thankfully for the Magic, the injury is not considered serious. And Isaac was certainly impressive in his half of play, providing a few highlight moments, per the team:
Several Mavericks impressed as well, led by Dwight Buycks (20 points, four rebounds, two steals), Brandon Paul (18 points, five rebounds) and Christian Wood (16 points, 3-for-5 from beyond the arc). After the contest, Wood spoke with NBA TV:
Marcus Georges-Hunt (20 points) was the only scorer in double-digits for Orlando.
As for Dennis Smith Jr.—the No. 9 overall pick in this year's draft—he will play for the Mavericks' Summer League squad in Las Vegas, per David Humphrey of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
The Mavericks will next face the Pacers on Tuesday, while Orlando will take on the Knicks on Wednesday.
Oklahoma City Thunder 99, New York Knicks 87

The Oklahoma City Thunder picked up their second win of the Orlando Summer League, knocking off the New York Knicks, 99-87.
Josh Huestis led the way for the Thunder, finishing with 26 points and seven rebounds. He also finished an excellent 4-of-8 from three and provided the highlight of the game with this monster slam, per NBA TV:
Dakari Johnson chipped in 21 points and seven rebounds for the Thunder, while Markel Brown added 20 points and two steals, which included this swipe and slam:
The Thunder provided most of the game's highlights, with Malcolm Hill sinking this three to finish the first quarter:
Chasson Randle, who spent much of last season coming off the bench for the Philadelphia 76ers, led the Knicks with 20 points. Damyean Dotson (13 points, five rebounds) and Jamel Artis (13 points) also had solid showings for the Knicks.
New York has now lost all three of its summer-league games, though the team has been without 2017 first-round pick Frank Ntilikina, who is recovering from a knee bruise suffered June 23 while playing overseas.
The Thunder will next face the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday, while the Knicks have a day off before taking on the Magic on Wednesday.
