Orlando's Jonathon Simmons (illness) expected to be game-time call on Saturday
According to Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel, Orlando Magic forward Jonathon Simmons is expected to be a game-time decision Saturday against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Simmons came down with an illness on Saturday morning and missed shootaround. He's going through warmups and has a chance to play, but if he's ruled out expect Arron Afflalo to get the start. D.J. Augustin could also see a lot of run at shooting guard with Evan Fournier at the three.
At a cost of $5,800, Simmons is projected for 30.6 minutes and 23.8 FanDuel points if he's able to take the floor versus the Heat.
