Nets' Rodions Kurucs starting at center Tuesday in place of Jarrett Allen (rest)
Brooklyn Nets power forward Rodions Kurucs will start at center on Tuesday afternoon versus the Milwaukee Bucks.
What It Means:
Jarrett Allen is getting a breather on the front end of a back-to-back, so the Nets don't have any true centers available on the roster. Kurucs has logged roughly 12 percent of his minutes at center this season, per Basketball Reference, but this will be his first start. Look for Lance Thomas, Justin Anderson, and perhaps Donta Hall to also pitch in at the five.
numberFire's models expect Kurucs to score 18.0 FanDuel points on Tuesday. He's priced at $3,600.
