Kevin Durant taking place of James Harden (hamstring) in Nets' lineup Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant will replace James Harden (hamstring) in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Durant will return from his 23-game absence to take the place of James Harden, who is out at least 10 days after injuring his hamstring on Monday. The Nets are expected to limit Durant's minutes to some extent following the extended absence.
numberFire’s models project KD for 36.9 FanDuel points over 28.5 minutes versus the Pelicans and he has a salary of $8,800 on Wednesday’s nine-game slate.
