Orlando Magic: Goga Bitadze


Goga Bitadze started in 33 games with the Orlando Magic this season averaging 7.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.7 Blocks on 59% shooting, and 68% from the foul line. When Wendell Carter Jr returned and Jonathan Isaac saw more action at the center position, his minutes vanished. He averaged a measly five minutes a game across two games played in the playoffs.

These numbers are slightly better than what the Cs would get from retaining Luke Kornet. Goga is only 24 years old and improving year over year.

Boston could use a spot starter with the time Kristaps Porzingis is slated to miss to start the season -- so if the market for the Georgian big man is reasonable, then Brad Stevens needs to go shopping.
