INJURIES

Late scratch Sunday Bitadze won't play in Sunday's game against the Celtics due to left ankle soreness.
Impact Bitadze was slated to start Sunday due to Wendell Carter (ankle) being sidelined, though the former will now join Carter on the sidelines. With both big men out, Orlando Robinson will make his first start of the season.
NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Starting sans Carter Bitadze will start Sunday's game against Boston.
Impact With Wendell Carter (ankle) sidelined in the second leg of Orlando's back-to-back set, Bitadze will get the starting nod for the first time this season. Over his last five appearances, the big man has averaged 6.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks in 16.2 minutes per contest. However, he's likely to see a significant uptick in minutes as a member of the starting five.
NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Scores six in win Bitadze finished Tuesday's 121-113 victory over Golden State with six points (3-3 FG), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 14 minutes.
Impact Bitadze continues to backup Wendell Carter at the center position, and has been productive in limited playing time, averaging 5.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.5 steals and 1.3 blocks across 16.6 minutes. While it appears that Carter's role in the starting lineup has been cemented, Bitadze does provide a lot of value in the blocks and field goal percentage categories, and would be a must-add if Carter were to miss time.
NOVEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Blocks three shots in loss Bitadze posted two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal across 15 minutes during Sunday's 111-107 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Bitadze's role backing up Wendell Carter is seemingly solidified, and while he did not produce much offensively, he was able to record three blocks and averages 1.3 swats this season. Bitadze will continue to come off the bench, and his value seems to stem purely from his ability to block shots.
NOVEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Paces bench in scoring Bitadze registered 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, one steal and three blocks in 20 minutes during Saturday's 125-94 win over the Wizards.
Impact Bitadze did the majority of his damage in the fourth quarter of a blowout, scoring all but four of his points in the final period. However, Saturday's showing marked season highs in scoring and blocks for the big man, which is a positive sign after he was held to six points and three boards in 13 minutes Wednesday in Charlotte. Bitadze remains stuck behind Wendell Carter at the center position, so unless Carter gets into foul trouble or picks up an injury, Bitadze's production will be limited at best.
NOVEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Pulls down six rebounds in loss Bitadze totaled 10 points (5-5 FG), six rebounds, two assists and one block across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 135-116 loss to the Pistons.
Impact Bitadze's role as the backup big man behind Wendell Carter has been steady, but he saw extended run Wednesday because Carter fouled out after just 18 minutes. This led to a bigger role for Bitadze, who made all five of his field goals and blocked a shot. While Bitadze's production may not warrant consideration on a roster, it is worth monitoring if he ever does get elevated to the starting lineup in place of Carter.
OCTOBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Fills stat sheet in win Bitadze scored eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 FT, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block across 18 minutes in Wednesday's 125-121 win over Miami.
Impact Bitadze performed well in limited playing time, flirting with a double-double while backing up Wendell Carter. While Bitadze's role will be uncertain once Moritz Wagner (knee) returns, these types of performances should keep Bitadze on fantasy managers' radar in the meantime.
OCTOBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Grabs eight boards in win Bitadze posted six points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and two blocks across 16 minutes in Saturday's 126-118 preseason win over the Heat.
Impact Bitadze grabbed a team-high eight rebounds and knocked down a rare three-pointer. The 26-year-old center is likely to back up Wendell Carter to open this season, as Moritz Wagner is still recovering from a torn ACL he sustained in December 2024 and isn't guaranteed to return by Opening Night.

2019 NBA draft re-do: Sixers stay at No. 24, take big man Goga Bitadze In a complete re-draft of 2019, the Philadelphia 76ers stay at No. 24 and select big man Goga Bitadze.
JUNE 16, 2025 • USATODAY.COM
Sees just two minutes Bitadze posted no counting stats over two minutes during Tuesday's 120-89 loss to the Celtics in Game 5 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Impact Bitadze saw just a total of 11 minutes in this series, as the Magic relied mostly on Wendell Carter at center. He saw some decent playing time in the regular season, however, posting averages of 7.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.7 steals in 20.4 minutes while shooting 61.1 percent from the field. Bitadze is under contract for two more years and is likely to open the 2025-26 season as Carter's backup.

Sees eight minutes Bitadze racked up two points (1-1 FG), three rebounds, one assist and one block in eight minutes during Wednesday's 109-100 loss to the Celtics in Game 2 of the first round of the...
Impact After playing a sizable role during the regular season with 7.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.4 blocks in 20.4 minutes per game, Bitadze has played a total of nine minutes to open this series against Boston. Wendell Carter and Paolo Banchero are soaking up the vast majority of frontcourt minutes, and that's unlikely to change ahead of Game 3.

Back to bench Bitadze won't start Sunday's game against the Hawks.
Impact With Wendell Carter (hip) sidelined, Bitadze drew a spot start Friday and posted 11 points, seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and a block. While he'll slide back to his usual bench role, he could see increased playing time if Carter doesn't play the entire game.

Back to bench Bitadze won't start Sunday's game against the Hawks.
Impact With Wendell Carter (hip) sidelined, Bitadze drew a spot start Friday and posted 11 points, seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and a block. While he'll slide back to his usual bench role, he could see increased playing time if Carter doesn't play the entire game.
APRIL 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Promoted to starting role Bitadze is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pacers.
Impact Bitadze's minutes have plummeted in recent weeks, and the lowest point came on April 4 when he logged a mere three minutes off the bench in a win over the Wizards. However, the Magic are resting most of their regular starters here, so Bitadze should see an uptick in his usage rate. He'll start alongside Cory Joseph, Tristan Da Silva, Gary Harris and Caleb Houstan.
APRIL 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Hardly plays in victory Bitadze amassed no counting stats across three minutes during Thursday's 109-97 win over the Wizards.
Impact Bitadze's three minutes played against Washington were his fewest of the season. The 25-year-old big man has received inconsistent playing time as of late, averaging 13.1 minutes per contest across his previous 10 appearances. Unless Bitadze starts receiving closer to 20 minutes per outing, it will be hard to count on him for consistent fantasy production.
APRIL 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Submits double-double off bench Bitadze provided 12 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 18 minutes during Saturday's 121-91 victory over the Kings.
Impact Bitadze paced the Magic in rebounding off the bench en route registering a double-double, his first of the month of March. The veteran big man has still averaged just 4.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.9 blocks in 13.2 minutes while shooting 54.1 percent from the field through 14 games this month, and his fantasy value should remain capped while Wendell Carter is healthy.

Struggles in win Bitadze finished Monday's 118-106 win over the Lakers with zero points (0-2 FG), four rebounds and one steal across nine minutes.
Impact Bitadze failed to make an impact during Monday's win against the Lakers, finishing with zero points in nine minutes on the floor. The 25-year-old big man has seen his role diminish considerably, averaging 9.6 minutes per game off the bench for Orlando, with the team turning to Wendell Carter in the frontcourt.
MARCH 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Misses out on double-double Bitadze finished with 19 points (8-10 FG, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds, one block and one steal in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 116-108 loss to Houston.
Impact Bitadze logged more minutes than starting center Wendell Carter (19) in Wednesday's loss. Bitadze capitalized on this increased playing time by scoring his second-most points in a game this season. If the 25-year-old big man continues to play at least 20 minutes a contest, his fantasy value will increase.

Downward trend continues Bitadze logged two points (2-4 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block across 16 minutes during Tuesday's 114-113 loss to the Raptors.
Impact Bitadze was a non-factor again, continuing what has been a rapid fall from grace. After assuming the starting center role earlier in the season, Bitadze has been reduced to playing limited minutes off the bench behind Wendell Carter. He has scored a total of just 11 points over the past four games, adding three combined steals and blocks.
