Knicks' Alec Burks: Handles light role in return
Burks (shoulder) tallied five points (2-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes Sunday in the Knicks' 113-112 win over the Thunder.
Burks was back in action after a three-game absence due to a sprained shoulder but wasn't able to make much of an impression during his time on the court. He'll likely hold down a minor role in New York's rotation in the short term, but he could see his playing time disappear entirely once the team gets OG Anunoby (elbow) and Julius Randle (shoulder) back from injury.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Questionable for Friday
Burks (shoulder) is questionable to play Friday against the Spurs.
Burks could be in line to miss a third straight game with a shoulder sprain, but even if he's available, his presence won't alter many fantasy lineups. The veteran guard is logging just 12.4 minutes per game since the beginning of March.

Burks (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Listed as questionable
Burks is questionable for Monday's game against Detroit with a sprained right shoulder.
This sounds like a day-to-day issue for Burks given the questionable tag. He's played a very limited role in March, averaging just 12.4 minutes per game.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Goes for 18 points off bench
Burks amassed 18 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals in 21 minutes during Thursday's 113-100 loss to the Nuggets.
Burks is settled as a bench option in the Knicks' offensive scheme, and that alone is enough reason for fantasy managers to be wary about his upside, as his role is extremely inconsistent. He has scored in double digits in two of his last three appearances, but on the same note, he's achieved that feat just three times since the All-Star break. He's averaging 6.7 points per game while shooting 28.3 percent from deep in that span, so Burks should be better left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Struggles to find shot
Burks ended Monday's 119-112 victory over Golden State with five points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist across 14 minutes.
Since being traded to the Knicks on Feb. 8, Burks has struggled to find his footing, averaging 7.3 points in 14.4 minutes on 31.5 percent shooting. Before the trade, Burks averaged 12.6 points in 20.9 minutes on a more respectable 39.4 percent from the field with Detroit. The change of scenery has not bode well for the 32-year-old. He should not be expected to provide much fantasy value behind Miles McBride, who has flourished the past month in 29.0 minutes per game.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Rough night in loss
Burks totaled two points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 115-92 loss to the Pelicans.
Burks had just two points in the loss, offering absolutely nothing in terms of fantasy value. Despite the Knicks continuing to deal with injuries to multiple key pieces, Burks has been unable to make the most of the situation. He should still be viewed as a possible points streamer, but as we saw Tuesday, even that might be a stretch right now.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Retreats to bench Thursday
Burks isn't starting Thursday's game against the 76ers.
Burks started the Knicks' final game before the All-Star break but will retreat to the bench Thursday since Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) and Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) are back in action. Burks has averaged 13.6 points and 3.0 rebounds in 21.6 minutes per game over his last five appearances off the bench.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Scores 13 in spot start
Burks finished with 13 points (5-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 118-100 loss to the Magic.
Burks made his first start of the season Wednesday with both Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) and Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) sidelined. After scoring 22 points on 50.0 percent shooting in his Knicks debut Feb. 10, Burks has shot 6-for-24 over his last two appearances, including Wednesday's loss. Should DiVincenzo and Bogdanovic return following the All-Star break, Burks figures to reprise his role as a scorer off the bench for the rest of the regular season.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Will start Wednesday
Burks will start Wednesday's game against the Magic.
With Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) and Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) sidelined, Burks will make his first start this season. During his first game with the Knicks this season, Burks posted 22 points (7-14 FG) in 22 minutes against the Pacers on Saturday but scored just five points in the next contest. He should get plenty of looks versus Orlando, but Jalen Brunson will lead New York's offense.

Knicks' Alec Burks: Pops for 22 in New York debut
Burks supplied 22 points (7-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Saturday's 125-111 loss to Indiana.
Suiting up for his first game with the Knicks following a trade from the Pistons, Burks didn't miss a beat, as he drained three or more three-pointers for the 12th time in 19 games since the beginning of January. The veteran guard is averaging 17.1 points, 3.2 threes, 3.1 boards and 1.9 assists over 24.5 minutes a contest in the new year, but it could be awhile before his usage with the Knicks becomes clear given all the injuries the team is dealing with.
