Magic's Gordon strains calf vs. Trail Blazers
Jeremy Brevard / USA TODAY Sports
Aaron Gordon just can't catch a break.
The Orlando Magic forward suffered a right calf strain against the Portland Trail Blazers with just under eight minutes to go in the fourth quarter and didn't return Friday.
As he was running back on defense in transition, Gordon pulled up and grabbed the back of his right leg. Upon being substituted, Gordon headed straight to the locker room.
Friday's matchup was the 22-year-old's first game back after missing a pair of contests due to a concussion.
