Johnathan Motley draws his first start for the Mavericks on Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks Power Forward Johnathan Motley will get the first start of his career in Wednesday's game versus the Orlando Magic.
Motley is bumped into the starting lineup due to the absence of Dirk Nowitzki, Nerlens Noel, and Dwight Powell. He has seen double-digit minutes just twice all season, but appears primed for a bigger role tonight due to a lack of bodies in the Mavericks' front court.
numberFire's models project Motley for 10.2 points, 6.0 rebounds and 0.6 assists, totaling 19.8 FanDuel points in 21.8 minutes.
