Suns' Brandon Knight: Unlikely to re-enter rotation moving forward

Knight will likely remain out of the Suns' rotation for the remainder of the season, Doug Haller of AZCentral Sports reports.

Analysis:

Regarding the absence of Knight and Tyson Chandler from the rotation -- both of whom haven't played since the All-Star break -- coach Earl Watson stated, "I'm not changing it unless management changes it". Though it's hard to tell whether Knight is struggling because of inconsistent minutes, or getting inconsistent minutes because of his struggles, the fact remains that both rookie Tyler Ulis and veteran Leandro Barbosa have jumped him in the rotation. Knight's fantasy value has been slowly deteriorating throughout the season, but this statement by coach Watson may put the final nail in the coffin on Knights' season, effectively ending his usefulness on almost any fantasy roster.
