Key Storylines

Lack of depth: The Knicks were shaping up to be a deep team pre-offseason trades. Now, it’s just the way Thibs likes it. Heavy starter’s minutes and as a plus, sixth man Miles McBride is questionable to get back in action.

Injuries and Flagg: Walker Kessler is questionable (Jordan Clarkson too) and Kyle Filipowski is out. The Jazz will likely shuffle around lineups again, keeping John Collins coming off the bench. One player I’m keeping an eye on is rookie Isaiah Collier, as he shown some stuff defensively (real life and fantasy) and can get downhill and playmake. His efficiency could be an issue, but I expect him to consistently start at some point this season.

Stream of the Game

Jordan Clarkson is a nice option for counting stats if he overcomes a questionable tag. The same goes for Miles McBride (points and 3s).

Alternatives:

These names can really only be applied to pretty deep formats, but I am most interested in Collier.

Drew Eubanks, Isaiah Collier, Brice Sensabaugh, Cody Williams, Cam Payne, Jericho Sims
