Brandon Knight expected to move into Phoenix's first unit versus Washington
Phoenix Suns guard Brandon Knight is expected to move into the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards, with T.J. Warren (illness) unavailable.
What It Means:
Head coach Earl Watson intends to move Devin Booker (ankle) into the small forward slot, opening the door for Knight to enter the starting unit. Tyler Ulis would then benefit from an increased opportunity with the second unit. Knight's fantasy value wouldn't increase much, despite the promotion.
Knight netted 18 points with two treys and a pair of turnovers in his only start for the Suns this season, finishing with blanks everywhere else. His -1.6 nERD is second-worst on the team through 14 games played.
