Goran Dragic starting for Heat Sunday in place of injured Jimmy Butler
Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic is in the lineup Sunday in the team's game against the Atlanta Hawks.
What It Means:
Dragic has been coming off the bench as of late, but Jimmy Butler is sitting due to a knee ailment. As such, a spot has opened up in the starting five, and Dragic will fill it against Trae Young and Co.
Our models project Dragic for 15.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 28.1 FanDuel points across 30.2 minutes of action.
