Gabe Vincent starting for Miami Thursday in place of ill Jimmy Butler
Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent will start Thursday in the team's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Jimmy Butler has been ruled out of action Thursday due to an illness, leaving a hole in the starting lineup. As such, Vincent will now be promoted to the first unit, drawing the nod alongside Kendrick Nunn in the backcourt. The Heat only have 9 players available, so expect Vincent to play a large share of minutes.
Our models project Vincent for 9.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 15.8 FanDuel points across 20.2 minutes of action.
