Cavaliers' J.R. Smith (back) a non-participant in Tuesday shootaround
Cleveland Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith was not at Tuesday's shootaround due to a sore back.
The hopes is that Smith's back loosens up ahead of tonight's game, but his availability is in question nonetheless. If he sits, rookie Cedi Osman would serve as a placeholder in the starting lineup while Dwyane Wade and Kyle Korver see more run at the off-guard spot for Cleveland.
If he can play, our models like the recently promoted Smith to tally 9.6 points, 1.9 threes and 16.9 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,000 tonight against the Chicago Bulls.
