RecapOso Ighodaro started on Thursday and finished with two points (1-of-2 FGs), five rebounds, one assist and one block against the Magic.
Head coach Jordan Ott made the call to replace Khaman Maluach with Ighodaro in the starting unit. Unfortunately, Ighodaro found himself in foul trouble throughout the game, which prevented him from providing much value. Ighodaro is worth considering as a waiver wire pickup, even if this first game as a starter was rough. He won’t do much scoring, but he’s a strong passer for a big man and has five blocks over his last three games.
