Jericho Sims

The Knicks brought back Sims on a one-year, $2.1 million contract this offseason after exercising his team option. Originally slated as the third-string center, Sims could see increased playing time with Mitchell Robinson expected to be out until at least December. The Knicks made a blockbuster trade right before training camp, sending Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo to Minnesota in exchange for Karl-Anthony Towns, who'll be New York's starting center. Precious Achiuwa and Sims should compete for backup minutes until Robinson returns. Sims has been a fringe rotation player over his three-year NBA career. He started 11 games last season, posting averages of 4.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 0.8 blocks in 22.7 minutes a night during those contests. While not relevant in standard fantasy formats, those in deep leagues might want to monitor Sims, especially if Robinson remains out longer than expected.
