Goga Bitadze

Carter has scored 12 points or more in five of his last seven appearances. While this would not be a significant deal for most starters, it is for a player who has battled inconsistency for most of the season. However, even with the increased scoring output, Carter remains a player who cannot be trusted in 12-team leagues. Over the past two weeks, he's ranked outside the top 200 in eight- and nine-cat formats. Backup Goga Bitadze (12/10/5/1/1 in 18 minutes) has been better, but his overall fantasy value hasn't been much to brag about. With Orlando's three-game Week 22 ending on Thursday, there isn't much to gain from rostering either in standard leagues.

"Just when I thought I was out...they pulled me back in." Bitadze has been ineffective since late January, scoring in double figures four times in 23 appearances. While Wednesday was a good night for Bitadze, fantasy managers should not overreact. Wendell Carter Jr. remains the starter, and he finished with four points, six rebounds and one blocked shot in 19 minutes. Neither Magic center should be rostered in most fantasy leagues.
