Tristan Thompson starting for Celtics Thursday in place of injured Robert Williams
Boston Celtics forward/center Tristan Thompson is in the lineup Friday in the team's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
What It Means:
Thompson has been coming off the bench, but Robert Williams is sitting on Thursday night due to an injury. As such, the veteran big man will be elevated to a starting role against the shorthanded Lakers.
Our models project Thompson for 9.1 points, 9.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 24.5 FanDuel points across 27.6 minutes of action.
