Caron Butler Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections
Marco Belinelli (ankle) and Omri Casspi (hamstring) continue to be out
The Kings will continue to be without their top bench scorers on Monday. They will only have 10 available players making James Anderson and Caron Butler valuable off the bench. Anderson has the higher upside but also did not play well in his last game. Anderson has proven that he is not a huge scoring threat thus limiting his upside. Anderson still has some appeal due to the matchup but there are other value options available in this game. With nine games on the slate, Butler lacks the upside needed to win a GPP.
Marco Belinelli (ankle) officially ruled out
Marco Belinelli will be out against the Pelicans. Darren Collison figures to play over 40 minutes with Rajon Rondo also out of the lineup. James Anderson could start at SG or Seth Curry if George Karl decides to go with two point guards. Look for an update soon as the Kings have not had this many injured guards all season. Caron Butler could also see the floor tonight but he is a risky play.
Caron Butler out Wednesday
Caron Butler has been ruled out of tonight's contest, but he had already missed the last two games with his knee injury. Look for Omri Casspi to pick up the slack.
Caron Butler questionable Wednesday
Caron Butler has been listed as questionable for tonight's game with an ankle injury. He has missed the past four games and Omri Casspi has been playing well in his absence. Look for Casspi to continue getting a lot of minutes with Cousins out tonight because the Kings will need scoring help.
New starting lineup for the Kings-Caron Butler in
The Kings will change their starting lineup with Rudy Gay in the hospital. Rajon Rondo, James Anderson, Caron Butler, Willie Cauley-Stein and DeMarcus Cousins have been named the starters.
