Taj Gibson

Taj Gibson scored 16 points, had nine rebounds, and two assists in 19 minutes off the bench in a 104-99 win over the Wizards.

Fantasy Impact

Taj Gibson was one of the Knicks free agent signings in the off season. Last season with the Minnesota Timberwolves he averaged 10.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.2 assists a game. He will most likely be used as one of the first forwards off the bench during the regular season.

Taj Gibson signed a two-year $20 million dollar deal with the New York Knicks.

Fantasy Impact

The Knicks really lost out in free agency, with their two big signings on June 30th being Julius Randle and Taj Gibson. Gibson will most likely be a role player who is past his prime at 34 years old.

Taj Gibson has been ruled out for Saturday's game versus the Grizzlies due to a calf injury which caused him to miss Thursday as well. Dario Saric is locked into the starting four spot.

Fantasy Impact

Saric certainly gets a solid boost as he doesn't have to split minutes with Gibson. Anthony Tolliver also gets a boost but isn't much more than a daily option.

Taj Gibson will not play on Thursday against the Charlotte Hornets due to a calf injury. Dario Saric will start at the four while Anthony Tolliver picking up minutes.

Fantasy Impact

With Gibson out, Saric is in line for major minutes and is a solid option in all leagues. Tolliver is worthy of daily consideration.

Taj Gibson put up 15 points, 10 rebounds, one dime and one block in 22 minutes of game action on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Gibson has been up and down lately, posting two double-doubles and a 25-point game in three of his past five. In the other two however, he combined for just 14 points which should give potential owners pause.
