Pacers will start C.J. Miles over Monta Ellis in Game 3
Indiana Pacers guard/forward C.J. Miles is set to start for Game 3 against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday.
What It Means:
Miles replaces Monta Ellis in the starting lineup as the Pacers want more size on the floor against LeBron James and Co. Miles is expected play minutes in the mid-20s with Ellis dropping to the lower 20s.
Miles was projected for 8.2 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.3 three-pointers in 18.4 minutes by numberFire's algorithms before news of his starting role come out.
