That's pretty good for a big and that was with Markelle Fultz and Cole Anthony as his point guards. Those numbers are both better than Maxi last season. It doesn't really matter that he didn't shoot threes in his first few years.
You're probably right though that he's not available. Orlando has been winning without him though and Bitadze has been awesome. Mo Wagner is a good backup. They have Banchero and Isaac at the 4 and they don't really have minutes for all 5. I'd gladly take Bitadze off their hands instead. They do need a vet shooter at guard. THJ would work well next to Jalen Suggs in the starting lineup. They need a shooter.
Your right, I totally screwed up the 3s per game. I would be intrigued by a Lively/WCJ/Williams frontcourt rotation if that 3 is for real. Prolly not an option though.
