Boston Celtics point guard Derrick White (personal) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 2 against the Miami Heat.
White is reportedly attending the birth of his first child. Marcus Smart is expected to return after missing Game 1 with a foot injury, so he will presumably reclaim his starting spot from White. Payton Pritchard could see an uptick in minutes off the bench.
numberFire’s models project Smart for 36.1 minutes and 29.8 FanDuel points, and he has a $11,500 salary on Thursday's one-game slate. Pritchard ($10,000) is projected for 29.2 minutes and 21.0 FanDuel points.
