J.R. Smith getting hot again, scores 17
J.R. Smith - G/F - New York Knicks
Feb. 2, 2013 - 12:50 AM ET

J.R. Smith shot 6-of-14 from the field and made five 3-pointers for 17 points, adding five boards and one steal in 36 minutes during a 96-86 win over the Bucks on Friday.

The infusion of health to the backcourt hasn't hurt J.R. Swish yet and he was still able to get a heavy dose of minutes and shots even with the Knicks having all of their backcourt players available. He'll be an up-and-down guy, but he should stick in most lineups for his scoring and 3-point prowess.
