Although he only played a few minutes, he looked decent. Obviously he’s out of shape – especially for D’Antoni’s system – but he wasn’t massively out of shape. He scored two points and pulled down two rebounds in his three minutes and hit his only attempt from the field.

Can Eddy Curry become relevant in the fantasy basketball world again? Probably not this year, but there’s a chance. If he can get in D’Antoni’s good graces, there’s nothing quite as fantasy friendly as D’Antoni’s offense.

However, it’s tough to imagine Curry playing the 25+ minutes per game necessary to become fantasy relevant. He’s never been known as a player who likes to run the court, which is a required attribute for a player with these Knicks.

Realistically, Curry’s best chance of becoming fantasy relevant this season is via trade. If he lands somewhere else (the Bobcats have been mentioned), he could see big minutes again and put up decent stats. Though if you are picking him up, you should check out the turnovers and missed free throws he accumulates before making your decision.
