Knicks' Enes Kanter puts together monster double-double in loss
New York Knicks center Enes Kanter grabbed 19 boards while tallying 16 points in Tuesday's 110-89 loss to the Boston Celtics.
What It Means:
On a night where Kristaps Porzingis didn't have it, Kanter was the only Knicks player to do anything of note. In 30 minutes, he knocked down 7-of-11 attempts while adding a block to his 15-and-15 performance. Meanwhile, Willy Hernangomez and Kyle O'Quinn combined for just 14 points and three boards in 17 minutes Tuesday night.
Averaging 30.6 FanDuel points per game, Kanter's 38.8 FanDuel points returned a value of 6.93 points per $1,000 at his $5,600 price tag. The Knicks' frontcourt rotation is leaning in his favor but we're not so optimistic. For Friday's matchup with the Brooklyn Nets, we project Kanter for just 13.0 points, 6.4 rebounds and 24.5 FanDuel points in 23.9 minutes.
