Elfrid Payton News
Phoenix Suns guard Elfrid Payton will start against the Kings on Sunday night. Chris Paul (thumb) won't be back anytime soon, and Cameron Payne (illness) is dealing with a non-COVID-sickness, so Payton will be in line to get some extra work. However, despite the increase in minutes, Aaron Holiday may be the more attractive fantasy option as the leader of the team's second unit.
Phoenix Suns guard Elfrid Payton has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Payton is back in protocols after coming back on Monday. He didn't exactly have a huge role when healthy anyway. Cameron Payne will see more minutes in his absence. He could be a low-end streaming option, but there are probably better options available in most formats.
Free-agent guard Elfrid Payton has agreed to a one-year deal to join the Suns. This will be Payton's second stint in Phoenix, playing 19 games there after the Orlando Magic traded him during the 2017-18 campaign. The 27-year-old is currently averaging 10.9 points, 5.2 assists, and 1.3 steals throughout seven seasons of service in the league. However, although Payton is a capable producer at times, he probably won't see much time on the floor this year to be relevant in any fantasy format.
New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) will be on the court for Tuesday's game against the Wizards. Payton returns after a five-game absence with a hamstring injury- and he'll be in the starting lineup, which will shift Immanuel Quickley (ankle)- who is also available to play- back to the second unit. It's unclear how the minutes will shake out as of right now, so it's probably best to avoid Quickley for DFS purposes, though he can be fired up in season-long leagues if he was benched.
