Delon Wright

NYK Point Guard #0

32mDelon Wright accumulated 12 points (5-of-9 FGs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal and two three-pointers in 30 minutes in Friday’s win over the Bucks.

Josh Hart

NYK Shooting Guard #3

32mJosh Hart tallied 13 points (5-of-8 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), 14 rebounds, eight assists, two steals and one blocked shot in 42 minutes in Friday’s win over the Bucks.

Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Power Forward #32

32mKarl-Anthony Towns shot 6-of-16 from the field and 1-of-1 from the foul line in Friday’s win over the Bucks, amassing 14 points, 10 rebounds, one assist, two steals and one three-pointer in 32 minutes.

Towns had a frustrating night in Milwaukee, as the Bucks’ physicality sometimes appeared to fluster him. The good news for fantasy managers is that he recorded another double-double and two steals, but the field-goal percentage was below KAT’s standard. With Jalen Brunson (ankle) sidelined, opposing teams have made a greater effort to attack Towns on both ends of the floor. His fantasy value hasn’t slipped much, but there are times when he isn’t as effective as he can be.

Mikal Bridges

NYK Small Forward #25

33mMikal Bridges accounted for 26 points (12-of-24 FGs), three rebounds, five assists, two steals and two three-pointers in 38 minutes in Friday’s win over the Bucks.

Bridges has scored at least 21 points in three of his last four outings, providing increased offensive production as the Knicks press on without Jalen Brunson. Over the past two weeks, Mikal has offered fourth-round value in nine-cat formats. In addition to the scoring, fantasy managers should watch his assist production. Over his past two games, Bridges has 14 assists and three turnovers. Given how shorthanded the Knicks are at the point guard position, he’s one of the wings who has taken on more playmaking responsibilities in recent games.

OG Anunoby

NYK Small Forward #8

33mOG Anunoby finished Friday’s win over the Bucks with 31 points (9-of-21 FGs, 10-of-10 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, three steals and three three-pointers in 36 minutes.

Anunoby has been on a roll recently, averaging 23.5 points per game over the past two weeks. The increased scoring production is why he’s offered first-round value in nine-cat formats with Jalen Brunson (ankle) out of the Knicks’ lineup. Also, he’s recorded at least one steal in 11 straight games, averaging 2.3 per outing. Anunoby and the Knicks end their Week 21 schedule with a home game against Portland on Sunday.

Delon Wright

NYK Point Guard #0

4hDelon Wright, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Friday’s game against the Bucks.

The Knicks are already without Jalen Brunson, and Miles McBride and Cameron Payne are not available for Friday’s game, either. After not being in the rotation, Wright moves into the starting lineup, while Tyler Kolek will come off the bench. If the minutes are distributed evenly, Kolek offers a higher ceiling, especially for managers needing assists.

Cameron Payne

NYK Point Guard #1

1dCameron Payne (ankle) and Miles McBride (groin) are out against the Bucks on Friday.

Friday’s game will be the fourth McBride has missed with a strained groin. As for Payne, he sprained his right ankle during Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, leaving the Knicks down three point guards, as starter Jalen Brunson (ankle) is also out. That leaves Tyler Kolek and Delon Wright to handle the point guard responsibilities, with the former having tallied 24 assists and one turnover in his last three games. Kolek does not provide much value as a scorer, but managers needing assists should strongly consider streaming him.

Tyler Kolek

NYK Point Guard #13

2dTyler Kolek finished Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers with zero points, one rebound and seven assists in 18 minutes.

Injuries to Jalen Brunson and Miles McBride have thrust Kolek into the rotation. With Cameron Payne not returning after halftime due to a sprained ankle, the rookie started the third quarter against the Clippers. While Kolek shot 0-of-3 from the field and 0-of-2 from the foul line, he dished out seven assists and committed just one turnover. Since entering the rotation, Kolek has accounted for 24 assists and one turnover. If Payne misses time, starting with Friday’s game in Milwaukee, the Knicks will have to rely more on Kolek and Delon Wright (three assists in 12 minutes) than they want to.

Mikal Bridges

NYK Small Forward #25

2dMikal Bridges amassed 17 points (7-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, nine assists, one steal and one three-pointer in 40 minutes in Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers.

With the current state of the Knicks’ point guard position, there will be increased opportunities for the healthy starters to offer more value in the assist category. Bridges dished out nine helpers on Wednesday, the most in a game for him this season. The Knicks wing only committed two turnovers, but a 1-of-5 night from beyond the arc hurt his field goal percentage. Over the past two weeks, Bridges has offered top-50 value in eight-cat formats. His value will likely increase if Cameron Payne joins Jalen Brunson and Miles McBride on the sidelines after exiting Wednesday’s game with a sprained ankle.

OG Anunoby

NYK Small Forward #8

2dOG Anunoby shot 11-of-17 from the field and 3-of-3 from the foul line in Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, scoring 28 points with five rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in 37 minutes.

Anunoby has flipped a switch offensively, scoring 23 points or more in four straight games. According to Basketball Monster, he’s ranked 13th in nine-cat value over the past two weeks. With Jalen Brunson and Miles McBride out due to injury, Anunoby is one of the Knicks who needs to shoulder more of the offensive workload as the team looks to lock down the three-seed in the East. Thus far, OG has been more productive, and those who have him rostered are reaping the rewards.
