PG 2 - Emmanuel Mudiay (New York Knicks)

The New York Knicks had known before the start of the season that they would be without their star player Kristaps Porzingis, for almost the whole season. More recently, Trey Burke has gotten injured as well for the Knicks and Frank Ntilikina has been really really bad for them as well, leaving Mudiay as their only choice at point guard for the foreseeable future.

David Fizdale, the new head coach of the NY Knicks, has been having a very constant rotation of his players, not making them fantasy relevant, with the exception of Tim Hardaway Jr and Enes Kanter. But now with all these injuries, it seems like Mudiay is set to be the point guard for a while.

In the past 2 games when Burke has not played and Mudiay has gotten the chunk of the minutes, he has led them to an impressive win over the Milwaukee Bucks and a good game but in the end a loss against the Washington Wizards. He had 28 against the Bucks to go with 7 assists and 3 rebounds, while he scored 16 points and got only 4 assists against the Washington Wizards. The Knicks anyways are 8-17 for the season and if Burke is not healthy enough to return tomorrow, expect Mudiay to come up big again.
