What It Means:

Birch had been dealing with a back injury and came off the bench in his first action since returning, but he'll be in the starting lineup on Thursday night against the Knicks. That means Wes Iwundu, who had started on the wing the last few times out, will return to a role off the bench.

Our models project Birch for 14.3 FanDuel points across 20.0 minutes of action.
