Brook Lopez (injury maintenance) in Bucks' Game 1 lineup; Sandro Mamukelashvili back to bench
Milwaukee Bucks center will start Sunday in the team's game against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Lopez got last Sunday's regular season finale off due to back injury maintenance. But in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Playoffs, he is ready to return to the court. He'll also immediately start in his first game back, sending Sandro Mamukelashvili back to a bench role.
Our models project Lopez for 11.0 points, 4.7 rebounds and 22.2 FanDuel points across 24.9 minutes of action.
