J.R. Smith

J.R. Smith (ankle) out, Iman Shumpert and Richard Jefferson starting for Cleveland

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward J.R. Smith (ankle) will not play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Richard Jefferson and Iman Shumpert are starting on the wings Wednesday as LeBron James (rest) is also out. Jordan McRae will log some more minutes, but Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love are going to handle the bulk of the offensive load for the Cavaliers. This will be the third game Smith has missed due to ankle soreness.

As far as value plays go, our models think Shumpert is going to give the best return at his $3,900 market value on FanDuel. He's projected for 8.6 points, 1.2 3-pointers, 5.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.8 blocks versus Indiana.
