Baker will enter the starting five for Monday's matchup with the Magic, Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports reports.

Baker has struggled to receive a ton of minutes with the Knicks this season, even seeing some time with the D-League's Westchester Knicks to get him extended time. However, with Carmelo Anthony (knee) sitting out, the Knicks will go with a three-guard lineup Monday and give Baker a shot to run with the first team. Baker has started three previous games this season, which he's come out of with averages of just 4.7 points and 2.0 rebounds over 17.7 minutes, so he shouldn't be relied upon for DFS purposes.
