Fred VanVleet starting in Raptors' opener Tuesday
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet is starting in Tuesday's season opener against the New Orleans Pelicans.
VanVleet averaged 13.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.0 steals, and 2.1 triples over 28 starts for the Raptors last season. He and Norman Powell will likely rotate as starters, but VanVleet is in line for a big leap in his fourth NBA season. Kyle Lowry, OG Anunoby, Pascal Siakam, and Marc Gasol fill out the rest of the Raptors' starting lineup on opening night.
numberFire's models project FVV for 23.5 FanDuel points on Tuesday. He costs $5,600.
