Shams: Marc Gasol expected to start in front of Andre Drummond for Lakers in Game 6
Los Angeles Lakers center Marc Gasol is expected to start on Thursday in the team's game against the Phoenix Suns, according to Shams Charania and Jovan Buha of The Athletic.
What It Means:
Gasol has been coming off the bench all series, but that's apparently set to change on Thursday. In Game 6 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals, Andre Drummond is set to be demoted to a bench role. Keep an eye out for an official lineup over the next hour.
Our models project Gasol for 4.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 15.9 FanDuel points across 19.5 minutes of action.
