Knicks consider Courtney Lee (neck) doubtful for season opener

New York Knicks guard/forward Courtney Lee (neck) is doubtful to suit up for the Wednesday's season opener against the Atlanta Hawks.

What It Means:

Lee has sat out the entire preseason with neck issues and coach David Fizdale wants the veteran guard to get in a few more practices before putting him on the court. Lee's role on the Knicks is unclear this season and the poor health won't help his chance for minutes.

Our models project Lee for 7.6 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 0.9 three-pointers in 22.2 minutes per game this season.
