Nikola Mirotic Scuffles From Field In Return To Starting Five
6 years agoMilwaukee Bucks power forward Nikola Mirotic drew the start in place of the injured Malcolm Brogdon during Sunday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. The Bucks will likely tinker with different rotations over the coming weeks of the regular season, but for now, Mirotic appears to be the first man up to try his hand as a starter and his first impression could have gone better, to say the least. He shot 1-for-7 from the field overall, as well as 0-for-6 from three, finishing with two points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals across 24 minutes. Mirotic could present himself as a cheap DFS play with high upside Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers, should he remain in the starting lineup and find his shot.
