Marcus Morris, Elfrid Payton, Frank Ntilikina All Cleared To Play
5 years agoThe New York Knicks will be at something resembling full strength when they take the floor Thursday against the Denver Nuggets with the triumvirate of Marcus Morris, Elfrid Payton and Frank Ntilikina all receiving the green light to suit up. Morris has missed each of the team’s previous two games, while Ntilikina has missed one and Payton has been sidelined since Oct. 28. The return of the two backcourt players hampers the DFS value of Dennis Smith Jr. and RJ Barrett, although Barrett still figures to see a large workload moving forward. In the frontcourt, owners can expect Morris to return to his high-volume shooting ways, even as he has a stingy matchup versus Denver on Thursday.
