Doug McDermott coming off Pacers' bench Friday night
Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott will play with the second unit Friday in the team's game against the Orlando Magic.
What It Means:
McDermott has been starting as of late, but the Pacers are getting reinforcements to kick off the weekend. Malcolm Brogdon and Domantas Sabonis are both returning to the lineup, and as such, McDermott will now revert to a bench role.
Our models project McDermott for 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 35.8 FanDuel points across 34.9 minutes of action.
