Donatas Motiejunas starting, K.J. McDaniels to Rockets' bench
Houston Rockets forward Donatas Motiejunas will start against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday with small forward K.J. McDaniels going to the bench.
What It Means:
It's a move countering the Suns' move of Alex Len to the power forward spot. Motiejunas has been terrible, so he's not someone to trust in fantasy.
Motiejunas has a nERD of -1.8 this season, ranking him just inside the top 100. On the year, he is averaging 6.2 points and 2.9 rebounds in 14.6 minutes per game. McDaniels has a -0.6 nERD, ranking 81st.
