Derrick Rose (back) missing second straight game for Knicks
New York Knicks point guard Derrick Rose (sore lower back) will not play Friday versus the Sacramento Kings.
What It Means:
The back injury Rose suffered Monday will now cost him two games. He's traveling with the team on their current road trip, however, so it shouldn't be too long of an absence. Brandon Jennings makes for another solid DFS play as the Knicks' starting point guard Friday night.
Jennings turned in 16 points, four rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes as the starter on Wednesday. He owns a -1.0 nERD through 20 contests this season.
