Miami Heat forward Jordan Mickey is starting at center on Saturday in place of Hassan Whiteside.
Kelly Olynyk was expected to man the center spot with Whiteside out but will anchor the second-unit as Mickey gets the nod in the starting five. James Johnson joins the lineup at power forward as expected.
Mickey hadn't logged a minute so far this season and was projected for only 2.1 by our models. He obviously will surpass that on Saturday.
