Tyreke Evans to replace Victor Oladipo (knee) in Pacers' lineup

Indiana Pacers guard Tyreke Evans will replace Victor Oladipo (knee) in the starting lineup moving forward, head coach Nate McMillan said.

What It Means:

Evans averaged 10.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.8 steals, and 1.3 3-pointers in 11 starts when Oladipo missed time earlier this season, which is pretty identical to his numbers off the bench. However, he's improved his scoring as of late, with 15.4 points on 52.8 percent shooting from the field over the last five games. McMillan added that Aaron Holiday will be more involved to help fill the void in the backcourt.

Evans is averaging 19.8 FanDuel points through 43 games this season. numberFire's models expect him to record 11.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals, and 1.0 3-pointers per game over the remainder of the year.
