Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell (knee) is confirmed out on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Russell was doubtful heading in to Wednesday night, so this isn't a big surprise. Spencer Dinwiddie will take over the starting point guard spot, while Caris LeVert and Isaiah Whitehead will get a bump in minutes.
Our models project Russell for averages of 16.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.4 steals over 32.9 minutes over the remainder of the season.
