Danilo Gallinari: Terrific performance in start
Gallinari scored 23 points (8-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding nine rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block in Wednesday's 115-112 victory over the Magic.
The Scoop: Gallinari got the start with Clint Capela (foot) unavailable and capitalized on the increased workload. It was his first start since the season opener Dec. 23, and he was able to stuff the stat sheet. Gallinari has had a somewhat inconsistent role with his new team so far this season, averaging just 11.7 points and 3.4 rebounds per game. His fantasy managers will have to hope that this strong performance to conclude the first half propels him to more opportunities following the All-Star break.
