Celtics' Semi Ojeleye starting over Tristan Thompson versus Raptors
Boston Celtics power forward Semi Ojeleye will start on Thursday versus the Toronto Raptors.
What It Means:
Ojeleye will start at power forward while Daniel Theis shifts to center and Tristan Thompson moves to the second unit. Ojeleye played 27.2 minutes in his only other start this season but only provided 8 points with 5 rebounds, an assist, and a pair of triples on 3-of-7 shooting. He's seen an uptick in minutes recently but it hasn't resulted in more production.
Ojeleye is averaging 0.5 FanDuel points per minute this season and he has a salary of $3,500 on Thursday's five-game slate.
