Robin Lopez in Cleveland first five versus Magic

Cleveland Cavaliers center Robin Lopez is in the starting lineup on Thursday versus the Orlando Magic.

What It Means:

Lopez is replacing Jarrett Allen (groin) as the Cavaliers' starting center for their penultimate game of the regular season. He will be joined in the first five by Ricky Rubio, Cedi Osman, Dean Wade, and Lamar Stevens. Lopez made one previous start this season and played just four minutes. He hasn't played 20 minutes in any game of the campaign.

RoLo has a $3,900 salary on Thursday’s five-game slate and numberFire's models project him for 20.9 FanDuel points over 22.1 minutes. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Cavaliers’ implied total (103.75) and the game total (217.5) are both the lowest of the day.
