Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni says that rookie Landry Fields could remain in the team's starting lineup for the entire season.

"All year," D'Antoni said when asked how long Fields might last in the role as starting shooting guard. "I'd be surprised if he can't do it."

Fields had 11 points and four rebounds on 4-for-8 shooting in his debut on Wednesday night against the Raptors.

"The best part of his game is all the little stuff," D'Antoni said. "He'll do what the game plan is. It's the consistency of all the details of the game that makes him unique. Normally you look at inconsistency as a rookie but I don't see that. He didn't look nervous whatsoever."
