Carmelo Anthony (back), Derrick Rose (knee) both ruled out Friday for Knicks
New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony (sore lower back) and point guard Derrick Rose (knee) have been ruled out of Friday's matchup with the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Mindaugas Kuzminskas is in line for his sixth start of the season and he makes for an attractive DFS play at a minimum cost of $3,500 on FanDuel. He's averaging 14.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.8 3-pointers in 30.4 minutes per game as a starter. Kristaps Porzingis will also benefit a ton as the primary offensive weapon with Anthony and Rose both out.
Kuzminskas is projected to record 13.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 3-pointers in 33.7 minutes tonight against the Heat.
