Wizards' Kelly Oubre will start in place of Markieff Morris (illness) on Saturday
According to NBC Sports' Chris Miller, Washington Wizards forward Kelly Oubre will draw the start in place of Markieff Morris on Saturday night.
What It Means:
Morris was dealing with a hand injury, but it sounds like flu-like symptoms will hold him out of Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. In his stead, Oubre will make his 10th start, and will do so alongside Otto Porter at the other forward spot.
Oubre's averaging 32.3 minutes and 10.9 points in 9 starts to date. We project him for 33.3 minutes and 27.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,600.
