J.R. Smith breaks out of slump Tuesday with 5 three-pointers in Cavaliers' win
Cleveland Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith scored a season-high 20 points and hit 5 three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Milwaukee Bucks with 1 rebound and 1 steal in 37 minutes.
What It Means:
Smith has not been shooting the ball well to start the season, but his 7-for-12 performance on Tuesday was a welcome sight for the Cavs. He is still shooting just 32.1% from the floor to start the season, but he'll have another shot at knocking down some shots Thursday against the Houston Rockets.
Our early models for Thursday project Smith for 13.0 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,600.
