Nikola Vucevic Records Double-Double Against LA
7 years agoOrlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic had a rough night despite walking away with a double-double in the loss to the Clippers. Vucevic played 30 minutes on Saturday night, scoring 17 points on an inefficient 8-for-20 shooting from the field. However, he did manage to offset his shoddy offensive performance by pulling down 10 boards and blocking a shot. Vucevic continues to benefit from the absences of Aaron Gordon (concussion) and Evan Fournier (knee), sporting a 4.1 percent increase in his usage percentage during their time off the floor. He will have a tough matchup on Tuesday against the defensively sound San Antonio Spurs, a team that likes to slow things down. Use discretion before using the veteran in DFS lineups, especially since the Spurs rank amongst the best in the league against opposing players at the five spot.
