Orlando Magic

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) won't play on Tuesday versus the Charlotte Hornets. This will mark his fifth-straight absence, so his next chance to get on the floor will be on Wednesday against the Pacers. In the meantime, Goga Bitadze will likely remain with the first five, with the 25-year-old averaging 10.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks in four starts this season. Moritz Wagner, who had 16 points, six rebounds, and one steal in Sunday's meeting with the Wizards, has streaming value in deep fantasy setups.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze will start in Friday's game versus the Pelicans. With Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) out again, Bitadze will remain with the first five. The 25-year-old has played well in his two starts this season, averaging 10.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals. While Bitadze's free-throw shooting could use some work, he remains a practical streaming option for fantasy managers against a New Orleans team plagued by injuries.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) is listed as out on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The big man has missed the last two games due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot. The team is currently considering Carter as day-to-day, but this is the type of injury that is really only healed by rest. Both Goga Bitadze and Moritz Wagner should see extended run in the rotation until Carter is available again. Both players are worth a look as streaming choices with Carter missing at least one more game.

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) will remain on the sideline for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This marks the second game in a row that Carter will miss due to left foot plantar fasciitis. Unfortunately, Carter is dealing with an issue that really only heals from getting rest. That makes his timetable to return hard to predict right now. Goga Bitadze finished with 11 points and nine rebounds across 27 minutes of action during Monday's game. He's worth a look as a streaming option while Carter is out. Also, Moritz Wagner is worth a look after putting up nine points and seven rebounds in 21 minutes with the second unit on Monday.

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (foot) is set to play on Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder after missing the last five games. With Wendell Carter Jr. sidelined due to a foot injury, Bitadze's return comes at a crucial time for the Magic. Although Bitadze will be available, Moritz Wagner is likely to handle the majority of the minutes at center. The Magic, sitting at a 3-4 record, will need all available bodies as they navigate the absence of star forward Paolo Banchero. Bitadze could be a valuable addition for fantasy managers looking for frontcourt depth.
