Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris (illness) has been ruled out Monday against the Chicago Bulls.
Morris is a late scratch for Monday's home matchup. He started the past nine games for the Clippers and averaged 25.1 minutes per contest. Nicolas Batum is the favorite to replace Morris in the starting lineup and play additional minutes. Eric Gordon and Terance Mann could also see bumps in playing time.
Batum has a $5,200 salary on Monday’s eight-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 19.5 FanDuel points over 24.3 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Clippers’ implied total is 112.75 and the game total (221.0) is the lowest of the day.
