Alexey Shved (ribs) likely done for the year
by Matthew Brandon | Wed, Mar 25th 9:56pm EDT
After fracturing his rib in a loss to the Toronto Raptors on Sunday, Shved is looking like he may miss the remainder of the season. The 26-year-old guard has been the lone bright spot for the Knicks since the All-Star break. In 26 games, he averaged 14.8 points, 4.6 boards and 3.6 assists per game. Phil Jackson will look to sign the upcoming free agent during the off-season. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact:
With Shved out for the season, look for coach Derrick Fisher to rely heavily on rookie guard Langston Galloway. Shane Larkin should also continue to log heavy minutes until Tim Hardaway Jr. returns from his wrist injury. Fantasy owners can drop Shved in favor of a healthier option during the fantasy post-season.
