J.R. Smith enters Cavaliers' starting lineup in Game 2 on Tuesday, Rodney Hood to bench
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward J.R. Smith is starting on Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers in Game 2.
What It Means:
The Cavaliers are going small as they try to even things up before the series moves to Indiana. Smith and Kyle Korver will join LeBron James, Kevin Love, and George Hill in the first unit while Rodney Hood and Jeff Green move to the bench.
numberFire's models project Smith to score 13.9 FanDuel points at a cost of $3,600 on Wednesday.
