Knicks' Dennis Smith Jr. (back) will not play Monday versus Bulls
New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) will not play Monday versus the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
DSJ played a total of 38 minutes off the bench the last two games after sitting out six straight with the back injury. It appears the Knicks will take it easy with the point guard ruling him out on Monday. Emmanuel Mudiay and Kadeem Allen will handle the point on Monday.
Smith has averaged 12.9 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 28.4 minutes per game this season.
