Rodney McGruder in Miami's starting lineup versus Magic
Miami Heat shooting guard Rodney McGruder is starting against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday.
What It Means:
Wayne Ellington is out with an ankle issue, so McGruder will start in the first game of the season for the Heat. They are missing a handful of players on the wing, so Ellington could see a decent amount of opportunity.
numberFire's models project McGruder to score 11.7 FanDuel points in 23.9 minutes at a cost of $3,500 on Wednesday.
