Magic's Bismack Biyombo to start at center for injured Nikola Vucevic (hand)
Orlando Magic center Bismack Biyombo will draw the start on Tuesday, reports Miami Heat play-by-play announcer Mike Inglis.
What It Means:
Nikola Vucevic will be out six-to-eight weeks with a fractured left hand, so the Magic will try Biyombo out as their starting center in his stead. Marreese Speights could see some run as well, but Biyombo's more than likely looking at 25-plus minutes against the Heat.
Listed at $4,400, Biyombo is projected for 23.0 FanDuel points over 28.6 minutes Tuesday night.
