New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is ready to rejoin the lineup on Saturday against the Detroit Pistons. Towns has been managing a left knee injury and did not play in the last two regular-season games. However, he has been removed from the injury report ahead of the postseason. Towns met the Pistons three times during the regular season and had no trouble filling the box score. He averaged 24.0 points, 11.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.3 steals in the matchup.
New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play on Sunday against Brooklyn. He was listed as questionable. However, not many expected to see KAT on the floor. Jalen Brunson (ankle), Josh Hart (knee), and OG Anunoby (thumb) also won't suit up, meaning DFS managers could see increased production from Precious Achiuwa, Landry Shamet, Cameron Payne, and Miles McBride.
New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play on Friday against Cleveland. KAT had 25 points, 10 boards, five assists, and one steal in Thursday's loss to the Pistons.

Mitchell Robinson, who had 14 points and 14 rebounds while filling in for Towns in the April 1 win over the 76ers, will move into the starting lineup.
New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Head coach Tom Thibodeau clarified that Towns is a game-time decision, as well as OG Anunoby (thumb), Jalen Brunson (ankle), and Josh Hart (knee). With four of the starting five considered game-time decisions, the Knicks' lineup could look drastically different by the time they tip off. If Towns doesn't suit up, Precious Achiuwa would be the best value play for DFS lineups. In 40 minutes during their last game, Achiuwa posted 18 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, two steals, and three blocks.
New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Towns was added to the injury report late and has been downgraded from questionable to out as the Knicks get ready to kick off a back-to-back set. The team has a big matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers coming up on Wednesday night, and Towns may be ready to jump back into action for that one.

Karl-Anthony Towns Now Questionable Versus Philadelphia
New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. KAT has only missed seven games this year. Yet, he has a sore left knee, so the team may keep him off the floor versus the 23-52 Sixers. If that's the case, Precious Achiuwa and Mitchell Robinson may see more action. However, Achiuwa would likely be the safer fantasy option, considering Robinson hasn't logged more than 24 minutes in a game since being cleared to play just over a month ago. Towns' absence will likely open the door for added production from Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, and OG Anunoby.

Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) may fall out of the rotation entirely if he is cleared for action. Both he and Robinson are carrying questionable tags ahead of Thursday's game.
