Alvarado will be in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pacers, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
With Jalen Brunson (neck/ankle) sitting out Tuesday, Alvarado is in line for his first start of the season. He hasn't reached the 20-minute mark since the Feb. 24 loss to the Cavaliers, but Alvarado looks to be a viable plug-and-play option for fantasy managers in a pinch.
