Sandro Mamukelashvili Fantasy Stats

Free-agent forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili agreed to a one-year, $2.2 million contract to return to the Spurs. The 25-year-old averaged only 4.1 points and 3.2 rebounds last season. However, he earned a semi-routine spot in the rotation toward the end of the 2023-24 campaign, logging 26.1 minutes in April. With that said, Mamukelashvili won't be a consistent fantasy producer. But he could find his way into the starting lineup at some point in the season if Victor Wembanyama or Zach Collins aren't available.

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili has drawn a lot of praise for his performances at the FIBA World Cup. Playing for Georgia, the 24-year-old has averaged 13.0 points with 5.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 27.3 minutes. His efforts include a 21-point performance against Luka Doncic and Slovenia. "I believe that he has a great future," Georgia national team head coach Ilias Zouros said at the tournament. "He can do good things. He of course needs to improve some parts of his game, but he's young and I think he can be one of the top players not (just) in Europe, but in the world." Zouros is, of course, a bit biased in his assessment of Mamukelashvili's ability, but the former second-round pick has been playing well at the World Cup and didn't look out of place in the NBA either when Spurs picked him up off waivers last season. Mamukelashvili averaged 10.8 points and 6.8 rebounds in 23.3 minutes, earning himself a new one-year, $2 million deal.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Sandro Mamukelashvili had a fantastic Summer League and was rewarded by being included in the 2022 All-Summer League First Team. Over five games in Las Vegas, he averaged 17 points, 8.9 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game while shooting a remarkable 47.6% from three-point range. The 6'9" 23-year-old is currently entering the second year of his two-year, two-way contract with the Bucks. He averaged just 9.9 minutes per game in the 41 NBA games he appeared in last year. The highlight of his season came in the team's final game when he scored 28 points and added 13 boards over 43 minutes. He'll likely see minimal playing time once again this year unless the team suffers some key injuries.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Sandro Mamukelashvili had a massive game in Monday's Summer League contest against the Boston Celtics. He scored 28 points while racking up nine rebounds, two assists, three steals and two blocks. He shot 9-for-19 from the field, 3-for-5 from three-point range and 7-for-10 from the free throw line. Mamukelashvili showed some promising flashes as a rookie last year when given the chance, but those chances were few and far between. In the team's final game of the regular season last year, he racked up 28 points and 13 rebounds over 43 minutes of play. He has his work cut out for him to earn a rotation spot but if he can, he has a chance to be a source of points, rebounds and three-pointers for fantasy managers.

Milwaukee Bucks power forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili (illness) has been ruled out for the second straight game, giving the team limited frontcourt depth vs. Dallas. Mamukelashvili's absence Wednesday forced the Bucks to deploy a smaller lineup for most of the contest with DeMarcus Cousins and Thanasis Antetokounmpo holding down the center spot. Cousins played 28 minutes, but that significant of a minutes total on the second leg of a back-to-back seems unlikely, dampening his DFS appeal somewhat. Mamukelashvili played a career-best 42 minutes and dropped 17 points Saturday, but he remains a DFS-only option at this stage, primarily when Milwaukee is shorthanded. His next chance to suit up comes Saturday against the Celtics.

Milwaukee Bucks power forward/center Sandro Mamukelashvili (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the Rockets. Mamukelashvili is coming off the best professional outing of his career Saturday, in which he dropped 17 points across 42 minutes. His absence is the latest for a Milwaukee squad that has had its depth tested by injury and the league's health and safety protocols, with DeMarcus Cousins and Thanasis Antetokounmpo set to hold down the center minutes without Mamukelashvili available. The rookie has been primarily a DFS option when injuries dictate, with his next chance to suit up coming Thursday vs. Dallas.

The Milwaukee Bucks' starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Brooklyn Nets doesn't look much like the starting lineup we saw in last year's NBA Finals. The team's starting five for Friday's game will be Sandro Mamukelashvili, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Jordan Nwora, Georgios Kalaitzakis and Tremont Waters. Nwora and Thanasis Antetokounmpo started the team's last preseason game and Nwora delivered a solid performance with 16 points, four rebounds, three assists and three steals. The elder Antetokounmpo, Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), is one of many Bucks regulars sitting for the game along with Khris Middleton (hamstring) and Jrue Holiday (knee).
