Luke Kennard L. Kennard

Clippers' Luke Kennard making third start of season Tuesday versus Hawks

Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard Luke Kennard will start on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks.

What It Means:

The Clippers will start Terrence Mann, Reggie Jackson, Kennard, Nicolas Batum, and Serge Ibaka as they are without Kawhi Leonard (protocols), Paul George (protocols), and Patrick Beverley (knee). Look for Lou Williams and Marcus Morris to see plenty of minutes off the bench as well. Kennard averaged 10.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.7 3-pointers in three previous starts this year, though Beverley and either Leonard or George were active for all three of those contests.

Kennard's usage rate rises to 27.2, a team-high 11.2 percent increase, when George, Kawhi, and Beverley aren't on the court this season. numberFire's models 23.9 FanDuel points on Tuesday and he has a salary of $5,500.
