Goga Bitadze Out Again On Friday Night
14 seconds agoOrlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (concussion protocol) won't play on Friday night against Boston. He exited Sunday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers because of a hip contusion and was kept off the floor for Wednesday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. However, head coach Jamahl Mosley indicated Bitadze had "some late symptoms," so the team will monitor him. Without him, Wendell Carter Jr., amassing 12 points, 10 boards, and two steals versus Milwaukee, will likely handle things in the middle once again, with Jonathan Isaac coming in for relief. With that said, the Celtics are one of the best defensive teams in the National Basketball Association, meaning both players could have issues producing on Friday night.
