76ers' Furkan Korkmaz draws first career start Wednesday in place of Jimmy Butler (groin)
Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Furkan Korkmaz is starting in place of Jimmy Butler (groin) on Wednesday versus the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
It will be Korkmaz's first NBA start. Butler isn't expected to miss much time, so this is likely a short-term move from head coach Brett Brown.
numberFire's models project Korkmaz for 22.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,100 on Wednesday.
