What It Means:

According to Hawks.com's Annie Finberg, Babbitt will cede starting duties to Ersan Ilyasova and Miles Plumlee, who is getting his first start at center. It's a little bit of a change with John Collins (shoulder) on the shelf, but the Hawks have to match up with the size of Brooklyn's frontline today. Babbitt, who has been dealing with a back issue, should still be in line for substantial minutes on Saturday.

Our models project Babbitt to play 25.1 minutes and put up 16.1 FanDuel points at a price of $4,600.
