Jerome Robinson starting for Washington Saturday in place of Bradley Beal (health protocols)
Washington Wizards guard Jerome Robinson is starting on Saturday in the team's game against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Starting wing Bradley Beal was ruled out less than an hour before tipoff due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. It's unclear how long he'll be sidelined, but for now, Robinson will be the one who draws the start in the backcourt alongside Raul Neto - Russell Westbrook is also out, though he's dealing with a quad injury.
In 5 games this season, Beal has averaged 6.8 FanDuel points.
