Lakers forced to start Jordan Clarkson or Lou Williams Wednesday
Los Angeles Lakers guards Jordan Clarkson or Lou Williams may start against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night.
What It Means:
Head coach Luke Walton prefers to bring both Clarkson and Williams off the bench, but it sounds like injury issues will break up the Lakers' second unit versus Houston. Clarkson is expected to get the starting nod, but they both make for solid DFS plays.
numberFire's metrics prefer Williams as the superior option on FanDuel Wednesday night, projecting him to record 20.0 points, 3.5 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 2.2 3-pointers against James Harden and the Rockets.
