Dallas Mavericks point guard Kemba Walker (injury recovery) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday against the New York Knicks.
Walker, who was previously listed as questionable, appears ready to return from a two-game absence. He played 42 minutes on December 17 and it caused issues with his knee, so Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd said Walker's minutes need to be carefully managed moving forward. Frank Ntilikina (knee, probable) will have fewer minutes available off the bench with Walker active.
numberFire's models project Kemba for 16.0 minutes and 13.5 FanDuel points on Tuesday, and he has a $4,800 salary on the Main slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Mavericks’ implied total (111.75) is No. 15 out of 20 active teams today.
