Guerschon Yabusele draws first career start for banged-up Celtics on Wednesday
Boston Celtics power forward Guerschon Yabusele will start on Wednesday against the Washington Wizards.
Kyrie Irving (knee), Jaylen Brown (concussion), Daniel Theis (knee), Al Horford (illness), and Marcus Smart (thumb) are all out tonight, so Yabusele will make the first start of his NBA career and should see a decent workload. The 22-year-old 2016 first-round pick has appeared in 22 games this season and hasn't played more than 11 minutes in any of them, but he should have no problem topping that number tonight.
numberFire's models project Yabusele to score 15.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500 on Wednesday.
