Golden State Warriors Damion Lee (contract) will return to the starting lineup on Thursday against the Denver Nuggets.
Lee missed the past two games for salary cap reasons while the Warriors converted his contract from a two-way to a fully-guaranteed deal. He averaged 15.4 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.7 3-pointers in December (15 games) but has simmered down a bit in January.
Lee is averaging 23.6 FanDuel points per game. numberFire's models project him for 11.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 2.1 3-pointers over the rest of the season.
