Bitadze figures to attract the most interest. As Siegel notes, he “is an intriguing center who could fetch multiple second-round picks in a trade and free up salary for [the Magic for] the 2026-27 season in the process.” A package of Bitadze and Jones could be of interest to a team like the Knicks, who are in the market for a true center and a backup point guard, both of whom would need to be strong defenders.

Isaac was added to the injured report Sunday morning as questionable with an illness. The 28-year-old power forward has averaged just 10.4 minutes per game this season, but could see some extra minutes with Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) out.

Isaac popped up on the injury report as questionable with an illness on Sunday morning. He’ll have merely a few hours to recover before game-time against the Pelicans. Isaac missed a game last week with Noah Penda seeing additional minutes off the bench, though neither are worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Isaac is set to return after missing Wednesday’s game against Indiana with a knee injury. The 28-year-old power forward is averaging just 10.4 minutes per game this season. Isaac isn’t worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Isaac did not play in Wednesday’s win over the Pacers, resulting in a few additional minutes off the bench for fellow reserve Noah Penda. However, neither has played enough to influence fantasy basketball. Both can remain on the waiver wire in redraft leagues.

Isaac has averaged just 10.4 minutes per game this season, so his availability isn’t a big deal for fantasy managers. With Jett Howard (illness) out, Noah Penda may see a couple of extra minutes off the bench with, but Penda isn’t worth picking up in most formats.

With Goga Bitadze back in the Magic rotation, Isaac played less than a minute in Monday’s loss to the Raptors. While he may play credible rotation minutes on Wednesday if deemed healthy enough to play, there isn’t much to gain from rostering Isaac in most fantasy leagues.

Bitadze is back after missing three games with a strained left knee. He’ll slot into his usual backup center role, resulting in Jonathan Isaac’s playing time likely taking a hit. Neither player should be rostered in most fantasy leagues.

Bitadze is in danger of missing a fourth straight game. If he does, Jonathan Isaac will fill the backup center minutes, with Wendell Carter Jr. filling out a larger role as the starter without another true center available.

Bitadze will miss a third straight game with a left knee strain. His absence doesn’t change anything for starting center Wendell Carter Jr., but it does mean that Jonathan Isaac will slot in as the backup.
