James Harden starting in Nets' debut on Saturday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward James Harden is in the lineup Saturday in the team's game against the Orlando Magic.
What It Means:
This isn't a shock. The megadeal that sent the star wing from Houston to Brooklyn finally went through, and once it was announced that Harden would suit up, he was a lock for the starting five. Bruce Brown or Joe Harris could be candidates to return to the second unit.
Our models project Harden for 26.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 46.2 FanDuel points across 34.4 minutes of action.
