Elfrid Payton (hamstring) will start for Magic on Monday
Orlando Magic point guard Elfrid Payton (sore left hamstring) will return to the starting lineup against the Golden State Warriors on Monday.
What It Means:
Payton was held out of the second half of a back-to-back on Saturday for precautionary reasons but he will be good to go tonight versus a Warriors team that is expected to be without Steph Curry (thigh). Shelvin Mack will return to Orlando's bench.
numberFire's models project Payton to score 29.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $7,000 in 28.7 minutes tonight versus the Warriors.
