Jonathon Simmons (ankle) expected to come off Magic bench Thursday
Orlando Magic small forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) is expected to come off the bench versus the Chicago Bulls on Thursday.
What It Means:
Simmons tweaked his ankle in practice on Wednesday but was a full participant at Thursday's shootaround and is on track to play. He's expected to come off the bench after starting the past five games. Evan Fournier (personal) has been tabbed to fill the void in his return from a one-game absence.
numberFire's models project Simmons for 15.1 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,500 on Thursday.
