Cavaliers starting Iman Shumpert as LeBron James (rest) takes night off
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Iman Shumpert will start for LeBron James (rest) on Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers.
The last time LeBron rested, Shumpert played 35 minutes with 11 points, three rebounds, two assists, one steal and two blocks. He should get a similar workout with minutes and might be a decent low-end play for today. His upside isn't the greatest, though.
Our models project Shumpert to finish with 7.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.4 3-pointers tonight against the Pacers. He makes for a great value play on FanDuel with his $3700 price tag. Shumpert ranks inside the top-100 with a -1.7 nERD.
