RJ Barrett, Derrick Rose Cleared To Suit Up Tuesday
3 years agoNew York Knicks small forward RJ Barrett (illness) and shooting guard Derrick Rose (ankle) have been given the green light to take the floor for Tuesday's game against the Nets. Barrett is yet to miss an outing this season, although he has scuffled over his five previous contests to the tune of shooting just 35.2 percent overall. Rose returns to action after a three-game absence due to a sprained ankle, and is set to give New York a much-needed jolt of offensive punch on its second unit. With the backcourt fully healthy, Tuesday will be fantasy managers' first glimpse into how head coach Tom Thibodeau plans on deploying the new-look group with Kemba Walker out of the mix and Alec Burks entrenched as the starting point guard.
