Shandon Anderson

Anderson was brought back as a spot player who is a relentless defender while a liability on offense. Anderson likely won’t average more than 10 minutes a game, if that, and his value will not be worthy of the fantasy radar.

Anderson will be buried on the depth chart at both guard and forward. Like several other bench players on this team, Anderson’s fantasy value will increase if Allan Houston’s knees prevent him from playing.

The addition of Jamal Crawford gives the Knicks a solid three-guard roation with Stephon Marbury and Allan Houston, meaning Anderson will have to find his minutes at small forward behind Tim Thomas. Of course, Houston could continue to have problems with his knee, which could pave the way for more playing time.
