DeAndre Liggins entering starting lineup on Wednesday for Cavaliers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward DeAndre Liggins will move into the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers sans Iman Shumpert (ankle).
What It Means:
Even with the starting nod, Liggins isn't someone to target for fantasy purposes. Kyle Korver would be the preferred DFS option with extra run off the bench, but Shumpert only has a 13.5 percent usage rate this season, so his absence doesn't create too much additional opportunity on offense for Cleveland.
Liggins is averaging 4.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 steals over 21.9 minutes per game in 17 starting opportunities this season. His -1.8 nERD currently ranks second-worst on the Cavaliers.
