RJ Barrett Continues Good Run Of Form
5 years agoNew York Knicks shooting guard RJ Barrett struggled from the field, but put together a solid fantasy line in Tuesday's loss to Washington, finishing with 16 points, six rebounds, four steals, and one assist. He shot 5-for-15 from the field, including 1-for-5 from downtown. Five turnovers were also a bit too much, but we can forgive him that after he finished Sunday's win over Detroit without a single turnover. Barrett has come alive since the All-Star break, upping his scoring average from 13.6 points per game to 16.3. He's been shooting a lot better and also dishing out more assists. Barrett should have another solid game against Atlanta on Wednesday. The Hawks have the fourth-worst defensive record in the league against shooting guards, and Barrett scored a career-high 27 points in a matchup against Atlanta on Dec. 17.
