Frank Ntilikina (back) starting for Knicks on Thursday; Dennis Smith Jr. to bench
New York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina will start on Thursday in the team's game against the Denver Nuggets.
What It Means:
Ntilikina was ruled active earlier on Thursday, but he's officially being inserted back into the starting lineup immediately. That means Dennis Smith Jr. will head to the second unit.
Our models project Ntilikina for 12.7 FanDuel points across 17.4 minutes of action.
