4 years agoNew York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina has been tabbed as the team's starting point guard for Thursday's game against the Magic due to the injuries that have saddled Elfrid Payton (hamstring), Derrick Rose, Immanuel Quickley (ankle) and Austin Rivers (personal). Ntilikina should have unabated access to as many minutes as he can handle, with a group consisting of Julius Randle, RJ Barrett and Alec Burks likely handling the ball when Ntilikina needs a breather. Despite four straight scoreless outings, Ntilikina figures to have elevated DFS appeal, but how long he keeps that role remains to be seen.--Jesse Borek
