Elfrid Payton

PG, New York Knicks

Elfrid Payton (right ankle soreness) will return to action for Wednesday’s matchup vs. the Hornets.

Payton will be able to play in his first game after the All-Star break, after missing the last two contests. He has proven to be the most reliable point guard that the Knicks have on their roster this season and should be rostered across standard formats as he is currently producing top-91/108 per-game value in 8/9-cat this season. Dennis Smith Jr. will head back to the bench but could see limited minutes with Frank Ntilikina (groin) sidelined.
