Julius Randle to remain in Pelicans starting lineup with Nikola Mirotic coming off the bench
New Orleans Pelicans forward Julius Randle will remain in the starting lineup on Friday with Nikola Mirotic coming off the bench.
What It Means:
Randle has gone off in Mirotic's absence the last two games, averaging 32.0 points, 13.0 rebounds, and 50.9 FanDuel points. Looks like the Pels don't want to mess with his rhythm leaving the big man in the starting five even with Mirotic healthy enough to play against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Our models project Randle for 16.9 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 32.2 FanDuel points in 25.9 minutes on Friday.
