Bitadze didn't miss from the field en route to a season-high 23 points during his return from a two-game absence due to a sore right foot. The third-year big man also fell one rebound shy of his second double-double of the campaign and notched a season-high three steals. Over his last four appearances, Bitadze has averaged 17.0 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.5 blocks and 1.0 steals in 22.0 minutes.
