Jalen Brunson (ankle) out Thursday for Knicks versus Mavericks
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks.
What It Means:
Brunson will miss at least one game after injuring his ankle on Tuesday versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Miles McBride will likely replace Brunson in the starting lineup and play as many minutes as he can handle. Malachi Flynn was traded to the Detroit Pistons on Thursday afternoon.
McBride is averaging 37.0 minutes and 34.3 FanDuel points in two games without Brunson this season. He has a $4,700 salary on Thursday and is a potential top value play.
