Start Bucky Irving: 60 percent of the snaps and 55 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Kyle Monangai's 41 percent of the snaps and 43 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
