New York Knicks point guard (hamstring) Elfrid Payton will come off the bench Thursday against the Denver Nuggets if he plays.
Payton is a game-time decision. He hasn't played since October 28, so expect some sort of minutes restriction if Payton is cleared. Frank Ntilikina (back) is also headed for a GTD.
Payton was averaging 23.0 FanDuel points before injuring his hamstring.
