Cavaliers' Kevin Porter Jr. making first NBA start Monday in place of Kevin Love (back)
Cleveland Cavaliers rookie shooting guard Kevin Porter Jr. is making his first career start on Monday versus the New York Knicks.
Kevin Love (back) is missing the second half of the back-to-back set, setting up Porter for his first NBA start. He will be at the three for the Cavaliers and Cedi Osman will move to the four in place of Love. Porter has averaged 6.0 points and 2.7 rebounds in 18.9 minutes per game off the bench while shooting only 35.8 percent from the floor.
numberFire's models project Porter for 16.0 FanDuel points on Monday. He's priced at $3,500.
