Derrick Rose to Start for Knicks on Wednesday

After being AWOL from the team Monday, New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose will be back in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. 

Rose received a fine from the team for missing Monday's game due to "personal issues." It was said that he was thinking about stepping away from the game of basketball for the long term while away from the Knicks. That obviously has not come to fruition. 

Remember, this came after Knicks head coach Jeff Hornacek benched Rose late in the fourth quarter of the team's previous game. 

While the drama between New York and Rose likely won't be going away any time soon, look for him to pick up where he left off as the team's third-leading scorer. In 33 games this season, Rose is averaging 17.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists. He has a favorable DFS matchup against a lackluster Sixers defense on Wednesday.
