ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Charlotte Bobcats swingman Stephen Jackson will have an MRI on his hypextended left knee Monday.
But he said after the Magic beat the Bobcats 98-89 that there’s “not a chance in hell” he will miss Game 2 Wednesday. The team said X-rays were negative.
Teammate Gerald Wallace dove for a loose ball and collided with Jackson just before the first-half ended Sunday.
