Enes Kanter (back) hopes to play Wednesday in New York

New York Knicks center Enes Kanter (back) has been cleared to take contact at Tuesday's practice and is hoping to return on Wednesday against the Miami Heat.

What It Means:

Kanter has missed three games with a back injury, and his potential return on Wednesday crowds the Knicks' frontcourt even more. Joakim Noah returned on Monday as well, so the Knicks might have to make a trade to free up some minutes for their bigs in the future. Kanter seems to be the only one whose minutes are safe though.

Our early models for Wednesday project Kanter for 33.3 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,200 against the Heat.
