Goga Bitadze News: Starting sans Carter

Bitadze will start against the Pelicans on Sunday.

The 26-year-old center will enter the starting five for the first time this season due to Wendell Carter (hip) being sidelined. Over five outings this month, Bitadze has averaged 5.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 15.6 minutes per contest.
