Landry Shamet Sidelined at Least Four Weeks

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, New York Knicks guard/forward Landry Shamet (shoulder) will be out at least four weeks due to a right shoulder sprain. Before the setback, the 28-year-old secured his spot as a starter and was shooting 42.2 percent from beyond the arc. He also averaged 9.2 points with 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists over his last five outings. With Shamet out, fantasy managers could look to Miles McBride and Jordan Clarkson as possible streaming options.

Landry Shamet Out for Wednesday

New York Knicks guard/forward Landry Shamet (shoulder) will miss Wednesday's meeting with the Charlotte Hornets. Shament will be out for the second game due to a sprained right shoulder. The 28-year-old has averaged 9.2 points with 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists over his last five outings while shooting 47.2 percent from the field and 44.0 percent from beyond the arc. His extended absence will likely continue to lead to Miles McBride and Jordan Clarkson seeing extra minutes.

Landry Shamet Sidelined Against Nets

New York Knicks guard/forward Landry Shamet (shoulder) will miss Monday's meeting with Brooklyn after exiting early against Orlando. Shamet had averaged 9.2 points with 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists over his last five games while shooting 47.2 percent from the field and 44.0 percent from deep. His absence shifts backcourt opportunities to Jordan Clarkson, who logged 15 points in 33 minutes last game and already holds a stable sixth-man role. Miles McBride could re-enter the rotation if coach Mike Brown expands the guard mix, but he remains a deeper-league speculative play.

Mitchell Robinson Under the Weather, Out Versus Brooklyn

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (illness) won't play on Monday versus the Brooklyn Nets, marking his sixth absence of the 2025 campaign. The 27-year-old isn't hurt, which is always a plus for fantasy managers, considering his lengthy injury history. However, he's not feeling well, marking his first absence since November 11. With that in mind, Robinson might be back when the Knicks play in Charlotte on Wednesday evening. In the meantime, Karl-Anthony Towns will presumably slide over to the five spot, Jordan Clarkson and Josh Hart are in line to see more minutes than usual, with one of them potentially entering the starting lineup. Precious Achiuwa may also see more action, although he's averaged only 2.7 points and 2.4 boards in 14 games this season, making him tough to trust from a fantasy standpoint, even with the chance of an expanded role.

Jalen Brunson Probable For Saturday's Matchup With The Magic

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is probable for Saturday's contest against the Orlando Magic. There's little worry here about Brunson sitting this one out. The All-NBA guard returned to action on Wednesday in Dallas after a two-game absence and played 34 minutes, right in line with his season-long average. He scored 28 points against the Mavericks, also in line with his scoring average. The reigning Clutch Player of the Year has seen a slight dip in his shooting percentages, but remains one of the league's best guards.

Jalen Brunson Returns From Two-Game Absence

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Per Stefan Bondy of the New York Post, Brunson has been named a starter for the matchup, alongside Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Mitchell Robinson. The team initially listed the star guard as questionable for the game. Brunson ended up missing only two games with a right ankle sprain. Miles McBride will move back to the bench on Wednesday night.

Jalen Brunson Questionable for Wednesday

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. A right ankle sprain may keep the Knicks star on the shelf for a third consecutive game. If Brunson can't return on Wednesday, Miles McBride will probably continue to start. He has done well in the first unit this season, averaging 14.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.7 assists, although McBride's shooting numbers have been poor. Jordan Clarkson and Landry Shamet are also players who benefit from Brunson's absence. The latter has joined McBride in the starting lineup, filling in for OG Anunoby (hamstring).

Miles McBride  • PG  •  Knicks

Miles McBride Available Monday Night

New York Knicks shooting guard Miles McBride (personal) will be available Monday when the team takes on the Miami Heat. McBride has already missed a pair of games this season due to a personal matter. With Jalen Brunson (ankle) out of action, McBride could see an increased role in tonight's game. The 25-year-old guard is averaging 8.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists while playing 22.8 minutes per game. Despite the loss of Brunson, playmaking duties will still likely land with Miles Bridges and Josh Hart, so don't expect a big influx of assists on the stat sheet for McBride tonight. He should still be started in all formats Monday night.

Jalen Brunson Unavailable Monday

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) will miss a second consecutive contest on Monday against the Miami Heat. He is considered day-to-day after spraining his right ankle in Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic. Following Brunson's exit from the lineup, Miles McBride (personal) made his second start of the season on Friday against the Heat. There could be another change in the lineup on Monday night, as McBride is listed as questionable for the game. Landry Shamet or Jordan Clarkson could hop into the first unit. The two made a massive impact in Friday's game, scoring a combined 60 points in New York's 140-132 victory.

OG Anunoby to Sit Out at Least Two Weeks

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (hamstring) is expected to be out for a couple of weeks. ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Anunoby will be re-evaluated in two weeks. He will remain behind as the team begins a five-game road trip on Monday night against the Miami Heat. Anunoby averages the fourth-most minutes on the Knicks squad, meaning his absence will open up a big chunk of additional playing time for the rest of the crew. Josh Hart, Landry Shamet, and Jordan Clarkson are set to benefit the most from Anunoby's absence.

OG Anunoby Suffers Hamstring Injury on Friday Night

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (hamstring) didn't return to Friday's NBA Cup win over the Miami Heat. He logged only five minutes before exiting, finishing with two points and three rebounds. The Knicks were already down Jalen Brunson (ankle), who could miss more time moving ahead. The same might be true for Anunoby, with the team reporting that the 28-year-old suffered a left hamstring strain. He's played as well as expected this season, averaging 17.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, and a career-high 2.1 assists in 11 appearances. Unfortunately, fantasy managers may not have him on Monday for the rematch with the Heat. Josh Hart may finally work his way into the starting lineup, although he'll still get minutes regardless of his role. Jordan Clarkson and Landry Shamet, combining for 60 points on Friday night, should draw streaming consideration, at least until Anunoby or Brunson are healthy enough to get back on the floor.

Jalen Brunson Out For at Least Friday with an Ankle Sprain

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) will miss Friday's matchup with the Heat due to a Grade 1 ankle sprain suffered in Wednesday's loss to the Magic. Brunson will be evaluated daily, so it doesn't look like a serious or long-term issue at this point, but he could miss a few games depending on how he responds to treatment. The Knicks have the weekend off before facing the Heat in Miami on Monday, the Mavs in Dallas on Wednesday, and the Magic in Orlando next Saturday. For as long as Brunson is out, the rest of the Knicks' rotation will get increased usage, with Miles McBride possibly stepping into a big role in the starting lineup. Karl-Anthony Towns, Mikal Bridges, and OG Anunoby will all be lined up for more scoring responsibility for as long as the team is without their superstar playmaker.

Jalen Brunson Leaves The Garden in Walking Boot

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) was seen leaving Madison Square Garden in a walking boot Wednesday night. The team is yet to release an official statement, but head coach Mike Brown told reporters Brunson "rolled his right ankle". The team is set to face the Miami Heat at home on Friday. Brunson leads the team with 27.7 points and 6.6 assists per game. If Brunson misses time, Mikal Bridges could be called upon to shoulder the playmaking duties for the team. Bridges currently ranks second on the team with 5.2 assists per game.

Mitchell Robinson Considered Questionable for Tuesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is questionable to play in Tuesday's clash against the Memphis Grizzlies. The injury-prone big man has featured in four of the past five contests, but Tuesday's game marks the start of a back-to-back, leaving Robinson with a question mark. He will likely sit out at least one of the upcoming games. A lingering ankle issue has limited Robinson to four appearances this season. He has averaged 5.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks in 16.5 minutes. The Knicks have used Robinson as a starter each time he's played, meaning a spot in the first unit will be left open if he exits the lineup. Ariel Hukporti has occasionally been a starter this season, but he's still had a limited role in the rotation. Josh Hart probably stands to benefit the most from Robinson's absence.

Josh Hart  • SF  •  Knicks

Josh Hart Available to Play on Monday

New York Knicks guard Josh Hart (ankle) is available to suit up ahead of Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. Hart is ready to play after being listed as questionable earlier in the day due to an ankle issue. It doesn't sound like Hart is going to be limited at all, so fantasy managers should expect him to have his normal role. He put together his best game of the season last time out with 14 points, nine rebounds, and three assists in 26 minutes of playing time. Fantasy managers should make sure to get Hart in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Josh Hart Questionable Against Wizards

New York Knicks guard Josh Hart (ankle) is listed as questionable heading into Monday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. If Hart is unable to play, Landry Shamet and Jordan Clarkson could see an increased workload. The Knicks will be without Mitchell Robinson (rest) at the end of the back-to-back. Hart chipped in 14 points and nine rebounds yesterday, an improvement over his five points and 6.6 rebound average this season. With the Wizards rested, look for a big night from Kyshawn George and CJ McCollum against a depleted Knicks roster.

Mitchell Robinson to Miss Monday's Matchup for Rest

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (rest) will miss Monday's matchup, the second leg of a back-to-back, despite just 13 minutes on Sunday. Robinson has appeared in just two games this season as he works himself back into shape following a left ankle injury he struggled with through the preseason. When healthy, the big man's excellent rebounding and shot-blocking potential make him a starting option at a shallow center position. Robinson can be dropped at this stage of the season despite his potential. His inability to stay healthy, appearing in just 48 games over the past two seasons, leaves him expendable if you don't have an injured reserve spot to stash him.

Mitchell Robinson Listed as Questionable for Sunday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is considered questionable for Sunday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. Robinson made his season debut on Friday night against Chicago, logging 20 minutes as a starter, but he may come out of the lineup again on Sunday. On Friday, Robinson finished his first appearance of the season with four points, 11 rebounds, and two assists. The big man continues to manage a left ankle injury, and it seems likely that Robinson will skip at least one game during the Knicks' upcoming back-to-back set. In Robinson's absence, Ariel Hukporti could make another start, but he isn't somebody fantasy managers should pay attention to.

Guerschon Yabusele  • PF  •  Knicks

Guerschon Yabusele Available Friday

New York Knicks forward/center Guerschon Yabusele (knee) will be in the lineup on Friday against the Chicago Bulls, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports. However, it's unclear how involved he will be in the rotation, as Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will make his season debut in a starting role and won't have a minutes restriction. In his prior three outings this season, Yabusele has logged 13.7 minutes per game. He has averaged 4.0 rebounds, but the Frenchman has been a non-factor offensively, putting up 1.7 points per outing.

Mitchell Robinson Won't Have Minutes Restriction Friday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will make his season debut on Friday against the Chicago Bulls without a minutes restriction, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports. An ankle injury has kept Robinson on the sidelines for the first four games of the campaign, but it seems like he's at 100 percent now. Robinson will join the starting unit and has a big role to play in New York's attempt to contain Nikola Vucevic, who has averaged a very efficient 18.3 points and 13.3 rebounds per game early this season.
