Knicks' Austin Rivers (personal) ruled out for Thursday night

New York Knicks guard Austin Rivers will not play Thursday in the team's game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

What It Means:

Rivers did not travel with the team to Milwaukee due to a personal issue. It's unclear what exactly the reason is and how long he'll be sidelined, but for now, look for Frank Ntilikina to get extended minutes off the bench.

In 21 games this season, Rivers has averaged 7.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 13.7 FanDuel points.
