Nene Hilario is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Utah
Hilario is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Utah, Jorge Castillo of the Washington Post reports.
Analysis:
The Wizards are employing a bigger lineup than usual Thursday to help match Utah's size up front as the Jazz boast the duo of Rudy Gobert and Derrick Favors. This will only be Hilario's eighth start this season and his numbers and playing time have been somewhat underwhelming in his other appearances in the starting five (11.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.0 block over 24.4 minutes).
