Bucks' Thon Maker starting in place of John Henson (hamstring) on Tuesday
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Matt Velazquez, Milwaukee Bucks center Thon Maker will draw the start in place of the injured John Henson on Tuesday night.
What It Means:
Henson's been ruled out for this one, and with Tyler Zeller yet to be cleared to play, Joe Prunty has no choice but to go with Maker to start. He's awaiting approval of Zeller's physical, but in the event he doesn't get it by game time Maker could play heavy minutes down low for Milwaukee.
In a matchup with the New York Knicks, Maker is projected for 17.9 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500 tonight.
