Trey Burke turns in season-high 31 points off Knicks' bench
New York Knicks point guard Trey Burke scored 31 points (11-of-20 field goals, 1-of-7 3-pointers, 8-of-10 free throws) with 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, and 3 turnovers in 29.2 minutes of a 131-117 loss to the Orlando Magic on Sunday.
What It Means:
After averaging 9.6 points over his first 12 games, Burke has now scored 24-plus in back-to-back games. The Knicks' rotation is as fluid as they come, so it's not clear what sort of role Burke will play on Tuesday versus Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers.
Burke scored a season-high 40.6 FanDuel points on Sunday. He's averaging 36.2 FanDuel points over the past two games, compared to 20.0 FanDuel points overall.
