Pacers' T.J. McConnell starting Thursday with Andrew Nembhard (back) sidelined

The Indiana Pacers will have T.J. McConnell start in Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings.

What It Means:

McConnell will hop into the starting lineup as the banged up Pacers prepare for yet another back-to-back series. He'll fill in for Andrew Nembhard, who is dealing with a back strain.

McConnell has a $6,600 salary on FanDuel and is projected for 29.3 fantasy points, with 10.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 8.1 assists.
