Luol Deng will come off Lakers' bench versus Knicks

Los Angeles Lakers forward Luol Deng will come off the bench for Monday's game against the New York Knicks.

What It Means:

Brandon Ingram is drawing the start on Monday night, and there's a possibility this becomes a permanent switch moving forward. This will be the first game off the bench for Deng this season. With his arrow pointing down, he's droppable in most formats.

Our models expect Deng to log 19.7 minutes off the bench, and we project him to record 6.1 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.2 3-pointers on that workload.
