Karl-Anthony Towns Fantasy Stats

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (elbow) is off the injury report and expected to return Monday against the Atlanta Hawks after missing one game. His return should move Mitchell Robinson back into a reserve role and reduce the minutes available for Mohamed Diawara and Ariel Hukporti. Towns has averaged 18.2 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 28.8 minutes over his last five games and posted a 20-point, 11-rebound, 11-assist triple-double in his last outing. He remains a must-start fantasy option, while Robinson's short-term streaming value likely takes a hit with Towns reclaiming starting duties.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (elbow) will not play in Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls, with center Mitchell Robinson moving into the starting lineup. Robinson becomes a strong rebounding streamer after recording 12 points, 22 rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in 31 minutes in his last start. His value comes from boards and defensive stats. Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges could see slight usage increases, while Josh Hart may help on the glass. Robinson fits as a category specialist in standard leagues for managers targeting rebounds and blocks.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) will play Friday against the Nets after briefly carrying a questionable tag. Towns continues to play at a high level, averaging 24.0 points, 11.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.8 three-pointers across his last five games in 32.4 minutes. He remains a strong source of scoring and rebounding while providing out-of-position assists. Mitchell Robinson should continue handling a smaller supporting role off the bench. Towns remains locked into lineups as a clear must-start during the fantasy playoffs.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will rejoin the lineup on Sunday against the Golden State Warriors. He didn't play in Friday's matchup with Indiana due to knee soreness, but the Knicks haven't listed him on the injury report for Sunday's game. Mitchell Robinson made a massive impact as a starter on Friday night, finishing with 12 points, 22 rebounds, two steals, and two blocks. He will return to a reserve role on Sunday, and fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to repeat his effort from Friday's game. In the teams' earlier meeting this season, Towns racked up 17 points and 20 boards, and with the Warriors set to play without Draymond Green (back), Al Horford (calf), and Kristaps Porzingis (illness), he might be in for another dominant outing.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was initially listed as questionable on the injury report, but will ultimately sit out due to knee soreness. His next chance to play will come on Sunday against the Golden State Warriors. In his absence, Mitchell Robinson is expected to move into the starting center spot. Robinson should be a strong streaming option while Towns is out. Ariel Hukporti could also see more involvement, but Robinson is the best streaming choice here.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's meeting with the Indiana Pacers. The six-time All-Star has landed on the injury report with bilateral knee soreness. If Towns sits out the action, the Knicks are expected to promote Mitchell Robinson to the starting lineup. While moving into the first unit would boost Robinson's fantasy appeal, he has averaged only 3.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in 19.1 minutes as a starter this season. Ariel Hukporti's role would also increase if Towns doesn't play.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson and center Karl-Anthony Towns, joined by former Knick Allan Houston, won the 2026 NBA All-Star Shooting Stars event Saturday, outscoring Team Cameron in the final round. The Knicks trio closed with 47 points after posting 31 in the opener to advance. While the exhibition carries no fantasy weight, both stars enter the second half in strong form. Brunson is averaging 26.6 points, 3.0 threes, 4.8 rebounds, 6.6 assists, and 1.0 steals in 36.6 minutes over his last five games, while Towns has posted 19.4 points and 12.4 rebounds in 28.8 minutes. Their usage keeps Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart in complementary roles.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) won't play on Friday against the Detroit Pistons, Stefan Bondy of the New York Post reports. Due to a right eye laceration, the Knicks listed Toews as questionable on the initial injury report. He was downgraded to doubtful earlier on Friday and has now been ruled out. His absence will likely give Mitchell Robinson the starting center role, while Ariel Hukporti will get a chance to log extended minutes off the bench. Whether Robinson starts or not, his stats have stayed about the same throughout the season. Towns' first chance to return will be on Sunday against the Boston Celtics.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) is questionable for Friday's encounter with the Pistons. KAT suffered a laceration above his right eye during the double-overtime win over the Denver Nuggets. It forced him to briefly exit the contest, although he still finished with a 24-point, 12-rebound double-double. Considering the 30-year-old played through the injury on Wednesday, it would be surpising if he didn't suit up. However, if Towns isn't out there, Mitchell Robinson, averaging 3.7 points, 8.4 boards, and 1.1 blocks in 13 starts, is the favorite to replace him in the rotation. While those aren't the most impressive statistical marks, Robinson could be more productive if Josh Hart (ankle) and OG Anunoby (toe) don't play.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (illness) will play on Saturday against Philadelphia. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks, his third absence of the 2025 campaign. Fortunately, that trend won't continue. As usual, KAT is a must-start in all fantasy setups. Ariel Hukporti, who had eight points, 16 rebounds, and four blocks on Friday, will head back to the bench behind Mitchell Robinson (ankle), who is also available. As a result, Hukporti shouldn't be anywhere near a fantasy lineup.
