Raymond Felton (felony gun charges) will play Thursday against the Heat, barring an unforeseen punishment from the league or the Knicks, ESPN New York reports. This is somewhat interesting, as Felton could face 2-to-7 years in prison if convicted of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, which he was charged with, along with criminal possession of a firearm, both of which are felonies in New York. He was originally arraigned on two charges, which is down from the three he was originally arrested on.

Analysis:

If Felton is a key cog on your fantasy team, chances are things haven't gone so well this season, but the charges are nonetheless risky for his fantasy value. Continue to monitor the situation, but for now, it seems like Felton will continue to suit up, as the legal process is in its infant stages.
