The Knicks may finally get some relief for their hurting point guard depth Tuesday in Chicago.
Dennis Smith Jr., who has missed seven straight games after the death of his stepmother, could get back on the court against the Bulls.
“Dennis is a possibility in the next game, which is going to be a welcome sight,” embattled coach David Fizdale said Monday.
Smith practiced Monday for the first time since he left the team to be with his family in North Carolina two weeks ago. He has been working out on his own during his leave, but said Sunday nothing could simulate real games and practices.
