Josh Christopher starting for Rockets Thursday in place of injured Eric Gordon
Houston Rockets guard Josh Christopher will start Thursday in the team's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
What It Means:
Eric Gordon is dealing with right knee soreness and was ruled out of action for Thursday's contest as a result. With a spot open in the starting five, Christopher has been tapped to get a nod with the first unit on the wing.
Our models project Christopher for 7.7 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 16.0 FanDuel points across 18.8 minutes of action.
