Knicks' Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will be sidelined versus Toronto
New York Knicks forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will not play against the Toronto Raptors on Thursday.
What It Means:
Well, the Knicks are going to need some offense tonight. Lance Thomas and Langston Galloway are already starting, so they will likely have to lean on Derrick Williams a ton against the Raptors. There should be a lot of Robin Lopez and Kevin Seraphin tonight, as well.
Porzingis owns the 59th-best nERD this season at 1.7. He's averaging 14.0 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.1 3-pointers per game, posting a 52.4 True Shooting Percentage. This will be just the second missed game of the season for the rookie sensation.
