The New York Knicks lose Jared Jeffries
The Knicks have lost forward Jared Jeffries for the next 6-8 weeks due to a fractured fibula that he injured in practice. Jeffries played in 73 games (19 starts) for the Knicks last season and he averged 18.2 minutes, 3.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. Jeffries was #3 on the depth chart at small forward for the Knicks so it’s unlikely that he was going to have a major role for the team this season. Still, they are better with him than without him.
