Fantasy Impact

Jalen Brunson (hand) has been ruled out and will not play for the New York Knicks against the Indiana Pacers Wednesday night.

Jalen Brunson led the Knicks offense Friday night, exploding for 48 points (18-32 FG, 7-12 3PT, 5-8 FT) while also dishing out nine assists and grabbing four rebounds in a 130-116 win over the Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
Brunson has been strong on the offensive end of the floor for the Knicks of late, scoring at least 23 points and dishing out at least five assists in four of his last five games for the club. The guard has been exactly what the Knicks have needed on the floor this season, averaging 24.0 points, 6.2 assists, and 3.6 rebounds per game while carrying a usage rate of 26.6% so far this season.
Jalen Brunson (hand) is active for Wednesday's matchup against the Miami Heat.
Fantasy Impact
A hand injury has left Brunson sidelined for two-straight games, but he will be well enough to make his return for New York's game on Wednesday night. He will get his usual workload and should be a high-end guard option for fantasy purposes against Miami.
