Josh Hart starting for Pelicans Wednesday with Zion Williamson sidelined
New Orleans Pelicans guard Josh Hart will start on Wednesday in the team's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Zion Williamson will not play Wednesday due to a knee injury, leaving a hole in the starting lineup. That's why Hart will get the start, hoping to provide some wing scoring for a Pelicans offense that is also down Eric Bledsoe and Lonzo Ball. Expect Hart to return to the bench when Williamson returns.
Our models project Hart for 10.5 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 27.1 FanDuel points across 33.1 minutes of action.
