What It Means:

This will be his fourth consecutive game watching from the sidelines, and it's starting to look like Okafor could be trending toward shutdown territory, particularly with how well Richaun Holmes has played in his absence. Okafor's upside isn't great, so if you're in a standard league without an IR-spot, there's not much incentive to hang onto him.

numberFire's models project Holmes for 28.1 minutes on the floor tonight, and expect him to turn in 13.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 blocks.
