Bobby Portis replaces Lauri Markkanen (rest) in Bulls' first unit on Saturday
Chicago Bulls forward/center Bobby Portis is starting on Saturday against the Brooklyn Nets.
Portis will draw the nod in place of Lauri Markkanen, who is taking a breather in the second half of the back-to-back set. Noah Vonleh (calf) is also out, so Portis should be in for a busy evening. He scored 6 points with 7 rebounds in 14 minutes against the Boston Celtics on Friday before being ejected in the third quarter for a confrontation with Marcus Morris.
numberFire's models project Portis to score 27.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,700 on Saturday.
