7 years agoWashington Wizards center Marcin Gortat posted 12 points on 6-for-9 shooting and 11 rebounds in Friday night's win over the Orlando Magic. Before the game, Gortat reportedly told the Orlando Sentinel he would like to finish his career in Orlando. “I would love to join the team for maybe two or three months, or maybe half a season at least,” Gortat said. The NBA trade deadline is approaching fast and Gortat is entering his final year of his contract with Washington next year. The Wizards may not look to deal Gortat this season, so this is more of a long-term outlook on his situation. However, if Gortat ends up being moved, backup center Ian Mahinmi would be first in line for the starting position.--Dale Johnson - RotoBaller
