Dennis Smith Jr. is finally returning to the court after a long and difficult absence due to a death in his family. The New York Knicks are set to play the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night and Smith will play limited minutes according to Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic.
“I’m looking at matchups,” head coach David Fizdale said per Vorkunov. “Again, what combinations look good together but most likely chance I’ll be starting the same one.”
If the lineup holds, Frank Ntilikina will still start at point guard, but Smith will likely be one of the first guards off the bench.
