Warriors will start Curry, Thompson, Wiggins, Kuminga and Green on Saturday
Warriors will start Curry, Thompson, Wiggins, Kuminga and Green on Saturday. In somewhat of a surprise move the Warriors will elect to start Jonathan Kuminga. He will likely not see full starter run but should still be in line to see more minutes now that he is with the starting group. Kuminga makes for a worthwhile cheap dart throw option on today’s slate.

Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro, Caleb Martin, Max Strus, P.J. Tucker, Gabe Vincent, and Dewayne Dedmon have all been listed questionable for Sunday. The Heat continue to list many players on their injury report but all players are expected to play at this time according to a Miami beat writer.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report Other tagged players: Tyler Herro, Caleb Martin, Max Strus, P.J. Tucker, Gabe Vincent, Dewayne Dedmon Torrey Craig (elbow) doubtful for Sunday
Torrey Craig (elbow) has been listed doubtful for Sunday. With Craig likely out, his small amount of expected bench minutes should be spread out amongst the available rotational pieces of the Suns.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report Bucks will start Holiday, Allen, Matthews, Giannis and Lopez on Saturday
Bucks will start Holiday, Allen, Matthews, Giannis and Lopez on Saturday. In somewhat of a surprise move Grayson Allen will get the start over Bobby Portis. Portis should still play a significant role off the bench but this will likely cut into his minutes a bit.
As reported by: Eric Nehm Celtics will start Smart, Brown, Tatum, Horford and Robert Williams on Saturday
Celtics will start Smart, Brown, Tatum, Horford and Robert Williams on Saturday. As reported earlier Marcus Smart will return to the starting lineup and is not expected to have any minutes restriction.
As reported by: Boston Celtics Joel Embiid (orbital fracture, thumb) questionable for Sunday
Joel Embiid (orbital fracture, thumb) has been listed questionable for Sunday. Embiid was able to play 36 minutes last night and will try to suit up again on Sunday provided he is able to go through warmups alright. If he were forced to miss Deandre Jordan would likely get the start as he did in the first two games of the series with Paul Reed playing a larger role off the bench.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report George Hill (abdominal) available Saturday
George Hill (abdominal) has been listed available for Saturday’s game against the Boston Celtics. Hill is expected to see some bench guard minutes, though he is expected to be on an unspecified minutes limit in his first game back. Hill is a poor FPM producer so he can be avoided in most DFS formats.
As reported by: Official NBA Injury Report Marcus Smart (thigh) available Saturday
Marcus Smart (thigh) will be available Saturday as expected after being listed as probable on the injury report yesterday. Smart will start and is not expected to have a minutes restriction per HC Ime Udoka. This will sap much of the potential value that Derrick White would have been in line for if Smart was forced to miss another game with his thigh injury.
