Mike Scott to start in place of Markieff Morris (hip) for Wizards

Washington Wizards forward Mike Scott will start in place of the injured Markieff Morris on Wednesday night, reports NBC Sports' Chase Hughes.

What It Means:

Morris is dealing with hip soreness, which will hold him out of tonight's home game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Scott will draw the start, but the Wizards could go small with Otto Porter at power forward and Kelly Oubre at small forward for periods of time. Jason Smith might also see extra minutes behind Scott.

At a price of $3,900, Scott is projected for 21.7 FanDuel points over 27.6 minutes Wednesday night.
