Magic list Wendell Carter Jr. (back) as starter for Game 3; Jonathan Isaac to play off bench

The Orlando Magic will start Wendell Carter Jr. (back) in Game 3 of their playoff series against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

What It Means

Carter Jr. picked up a back injury at the end of the regular season and has been limited by the injury to open the Magic's playoffs. The team had played him off the bench in Games 1 and 2 as he worked his way back up to full health, but he'll join the starting five for Game 3. His return to the lineup will push Jonathan Isaac to a bench role.

Our model projects Carter Jr., who has a $4,700 salary, for 17 FanDuel points against the Cavs, with 7.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.3 assists.
