LaMelo Ball replacing Bryce McGowens in Hornets' lineup Thursday
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle/wrist) is replacing Bryce McGowens in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Ball is taking back over as the starting point guard after missing the last three games. Terry Rozier will move back to shooting guard and McGowens will be available off the bench.
numberFire's models project LaMelo for 34.9 minutes and 44.1 FanDuel points on Thursday, and he has a $9,000 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Hornets’ implied total (114.25) is tied for No. 5 out of 12 active teams today.
