Frank Ntilikina

PG, New York Knicks

In his third year with the Knicks and the league, Frank Ntilikina averaged 6.3 points, 2.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.3 blocks, 0.8 threes and 1.2 turnovers in 20.8 mpg across 57 games with 26 starts.

The biggest improvement for Ntilikina was with his efficiency as he had career-bests in all the percentages (.393/.321/.864 splits). While these are still disappointing numbers, it is the area that needed to improve the most in order to enter the fantasy conversation. Ntlikina will enter the final year of his rookie contract in 2020-21 and has the opportunity to improve on his 233/248 per-game value in 8/9-cat leagues if he continues to improve his efficiency. Although Ntilikina was drafted as a point guard, he may end up playing more and more at small forward if the Knicks continue to go with Elfrid Payton.
