Luke Babbitt replaces Josh Richardson (ankle) as Heat face Kings
Miami Heat small forward Luke Babbitt is starting on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings in place of Josh Richardson (ankle).
What It Means:
Babbitt has been a DNP-CD in two of the past three games and he's totaled 16 minutes in the last two games where he did play. Unless he catches fire from deep, Babbitt probably won't see much additional run. Rodney McGruder figures to be the biggest beneficiary from Richardson's absence.
numberFire's models project Babbitt to score 3.7 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500 on Wednesday.
