3 years agoNew York Knicks shooting guard/small forward Alec Burks will make his first start of the season Saturday against Atlanta with Kemba Walker (rest) unavailable. Burks figures to share ballhandling duties in the first unit alongside RJ Barrett and Julius Randle, but with Derrick Rose (knee) also out, Burks stands to see a significantly elevated role. Burks has averaged just 9.8 points per game across his first 19 contests, but he has shot 44 percent from behind the arc in that stretch. Immanuel Quickley will key the second unit and should see a similarly large offensive focus. Both are strong DFS targets due to their current price tags and Atlanta's shaky defense (108.2 PPG allowed).--Jesse Borek
