Knox finished with 24 points (8-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 37 minutes during Friday's 114-107 loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Knox started the game on fire Friday, scoring 19 points in the first quarter. Unfortunately, things slowed drastically after that and he finished with 24 points for the game. Knox has been scoring the ball well lately but outside of some passable rebounding numbers, he offers very little else. Based on his playing time and the fact that the Knicks coaching staff appear to want to get in him there at every chance, he should be rostered in standard formats.

Knox scored 19 points (7-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding seven rebounds, two blocks and an assist in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 113-106 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Making just his fourth start of the season, the rookie put together another strong performance. Knox's role in the offense is on the upswing again -- he's attempted double-digit FGs in five of the last six games -- and while the Knicks will likely keep a close eye on the teenager's workload, he's got a high fantasy ceiling given his talent and the team's need for someone other than Tim Hardaway Jr. to provide consistent scoring.

Knox will start Wednesday against the Cavaliers, Chris Iseman of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach David Fizdale will opt to start the rookie over Mario Hezonja. In three previous starts this season, Knox has averaged 10.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists on 33.3 percent shooting.

Knox tallied 26 points (10-25 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds and one steal across 41 minutes Sunday in the Knicks' 119-107 loss to the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Coach David Fizdale had a quick hook on starting small forward Mario Hezonja, who played just five minutes to afford Knox most of the run at the position. While the rookie came through with a career-high rebound total and matched his best scoring haul of the season, the latter tally came on highly inefficient shooting, which has been a common occurrence throughout the campaign. Knox has converted just 35 percent of his attempts from the field and 34.1 percent of his tries from downtown this season and typically offers precious little production outside of scoring and three-pointers, making him tough to rely on for fantasy purposes.

Knox finished with a career-high 26 points (9-20 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and added four rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block across 37 minutes in Saturday's 136-134 overtime win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
It's been a rough rookie season thus far for Knox both for injury- and performance-related reasons, but the forward showed well here thanks largely to his marksmanship from the outside. Though the Knicks are just 8-16 and trending toward a non-contending season, it may take a few more weeks before coach David Fizdale turns Knox loose for good. Prior to Saturday's contest, Knox had averaged just 16.2 minutes per game over the Knicks' prior five contests.

Knox collected 11 points (3-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and one block across 26 minutes in Wednesday's 117-109 win over the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
After getting sent to the bench his last time out and only producing two points, Knox came off the bench Wednesday with a vengeance, nearly posting his first career double-double. While it's no guarantee he gets back into the starting lineup at this point, his efficient shooting and season-high rebound total is certainly encouraging for future output.

Knox will come off the bench Tuesday against the Trail Blazers, Chris Iseman of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Knox will head to the pine while coach David Fizdale opts to start Noah Vonleh at power forward. Still, it would be surprising if Knox saw under 20 minutes, which is a mark he's reached in each of the past five games. During that stretch, he's averaged 11.8 points and 3.2 rebounds on 34.5 percent shooting.

Knox will start Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach David Fizdale will mix things up Wednesday, inserting Knox at small forward in place of Damyean Dotson and also swapping out Frank Ntilikina for Emmanuel Mudiay at point guard. It's unclear if this is anything more than a one-game change, but Knox figures to have a good chance to hold onto the starting spot now that he's back up to speed after missing time with an ankle injury.

Know totaled 17 points (4-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-10 FT), and three rebounds in 25 minutes during Sunday's 115-89 loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Knox led all Knicks with 17 points Sunday, in what can simply be described as an embarrassing loss. The starting unit combined for a total of 20 points leaving the bench to provide the bulk of the offense. Knox certainly has the ability to score the ball but offers very little outside of points and three's. He is more of a deep league player but could be used at a pinch if you need a short-term scoring boost in standard formats.

Knox played just five minutes in Monday's loss to the Bulls, and the team will ease him back into action after he missed time with a sprained ankle, the New York Post reports. "It felt good, coach told me before the game he'd put me in for a little bit so I was expecting that,'" Knox said. "I felt good after the dunk. I felt good now. I'm going to keep progressing from here.'"
EDGE Analysis
Knox was more limited than expected Monday, but he came away unscathed after missing seven consecutive contests. The rookie said he thinks he'll be back to 100 percent in the near future, but there's a chance he could still be limited in Wednesday's game against Atlanta. Prior to the injury, Knox had played 24 and 28 minutes in the two games for which he was healthy.
