Jonathon Simmons scores 18 points off Magic's bench Saturday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons scored 18 points during a 125-107 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Saturday, adding 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 three-pointer in 27 minutes.
What It Means:
The Magic got destroyed in this one from the opening tip, and Simmons had to serve as the backup point guard with Elfrid Payton (hamstring) out. It was a tough spot playing on the road in Denver on no rest, and it won't get any easier Monday against the Golden State Warriors.
Our early models for Monday project Simmons for 18.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,500.
