Mitchell Robinson Won't Suit Up Against Indiana

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) won't play on Thursday versus Indiana. He logged 18 minutes in Tuesday's NBA Cup win over the San Antonio Spurs, finishing with four points, 15 rebounds, two blocks, and one steal. The 27-year-old is listed as out for injury management purposes, so it appears he may be back on Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. With Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) also unavailable, Ariel Hukporti and Guerschon Yabusele will presumably split time in the middle, with the former the favorite to start.

Josh Hart Sidelined on Thursday Evening

New York Knicks forward Josh Hart (abdomen) is ruled out heading into Thursday's matchup with the Pacers. The 30-year-old has been starting of late, most recently amassing 11 points, eight rebounds, and two steals in Tuesday's NBA Cup win over the San Antonio Spurs. Fantasy managers will now have to take the wait-and-see approch regarding his availability for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. With Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) also sidelined, Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby (knee) should have plenty of work to do versus one of the worst defensive clubs in the National Basketball Association. Jordan Clarkson and Tyler Kolek, combining for 29 points on Tuesday, are also projected to see some extra minutes.

OG Anunoby Available Against Indiana

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (knee) will play on Thursday against the Pacers. The former Raptor had a fantastic showing in Tuesday's NBA Cup win over the Spurs, amassing 28 points and nine rebounds while shooting 5-for-10 from behind the arc. The Knicks won't have Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), Josh Hart (abdomen), and Mitchell Robinson (ankle), so Anunoby should be very busy versus an Indiana team that hasn't looked good defensively throughout the 2025 campaign.

Karl-Anthony Towns Out on Thursday Night

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play in Thursday's game in Indiana. KAT, who had a 16-point, 11-rebound double-double in Tuesday's NBA Cup win over the San Antonio Spurs, will miss his second contest of the 2025 campaign. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day, so there's a chance he may be back on the floor on Friday night against the visiting Philadelphia 76ers. With Mitchell Robinson (ankle) also out, Guerschon Yabusele and Ariel Hukporti will presumably split time in the middle for the meeting with a Pacers team that has struggled on the defensive side of the ball this season.

Mitchell Robinson Tagged as Questionable for Thursday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) may exit the lineup on Thursday against the Indiana Pacers, as he is considered questionable for the game. Robinson continues to manage an ankle injury. If he can shed the questionable designation, the 27-year-old may get an opportunity to re-enter the first unit. New York has three starters listed as questionable for Thursday, including starting center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee). Centers have feasted against the Pacers all season, and it would be a favorable matchup for Robinson if he can play.

Josh Hart Uncertain for Thursday

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (abdomen) could miss his second game of the season on Thursday against the Indiana Pacers, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. The versatile veteran is on the injury report with an abdominal strain. After beginning the season as a member of the second unit, Hart has been a regular starter over the last four weeks. He is one of three starters with a questionable tag on the injury, so the Knicks' bench mob could see additional playing opportunities on Thursday night.

OG Anunoby Listed as Questionable for Thursday

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (knee) is considered questionable for Thursday's tilt against the Indiana Pacers. After starring in the 2025 NBA Cup final, Anunoby has landed on the injury report due to a left knee contusion. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), Josh Hart (abdominal), and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) are also on the injury list as questionable, so the Knicks could have a very different look on Thursday night. Bench players such as Jordan Clarkson, Tyler Kolek, and Guerschon Yabusele must be ready to take on larger workloads.

Karl-Anthony Towns Iffy for Thursday

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) may take a night off after winning the NBA Cup, as he has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Indiana Pacers. The big man is on the injury report with a sore left knee. Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is also listed as questionable, meaning Ariel Hukporti and Guerschon Yabusele may have to carry the frontcourt in a favorable matchup. This is a pace-up spot for the Knicks against a weak defense. The Pacers have especially struggled to contain centers, giving up the eighth-most fantasy points to the position this season.

Miles McBride to be Re-Evaluated in One Week

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week, Ian Begley of SYN reports. McBride injured his left ankle in a contest against the Orlando Magic last Sunday. He has already missed one game and won't be able to help his team in the NBA Cup semifinal matchup against the Magic this weekend and a potential final on Tuesday. Jordan Clarkson will play a more active role in the rotation until McBride returns. The veteran guard put up 12 points and had three rebounds in 26 minutes when New York defeated the Toronto Raptors in the NBA Cup quarterfinals on Tuesday.

Karl-Anthony Towns Back in Action Against Toronto

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) will play on Tuesday against Toronto. KAT wasn't available for Sunday's win over the Orlando Magic, marking his first absence of the 2025 campaign. Despite appearing on the injury report and carrying a questionable designation, he'll be back on the floor for the NBA Cup meeting. In Towns' only game versus the Raptors this season, he amassed 22 points and eight rebounds while shooting 25.0% from behind the arc. Of course, fantasy managers are hoping that was an isolated incident. With Towns back in the lineup, Mitchell Robinson, coming off a six-point, 13-rebound, one-block effort, will presumably head to the bench.

Miles McBride Ruled Out With Ankle Sprain Against Raptors

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (ankle) will miss Tuesday's game in Toronto after exiting Sunday's win over Orlando. His absence frees up backcourt minutes, putting veteran scorer Jordan Clarkson on the streaming radar despite a quiet zero-point outing in 17 minutes Sunday. McBride had averaged 12.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists over his last five games, shooting 45.5 percent from the field, so his removal creates a clearer secondary role for Clarkson and a slight usage bump for the remaining starters. Managers in shallow formats can stream accordingly.

Karl-Anthony Towns Iffy for Tuesday

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) is considered questionable for Tuesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal against the Toronto Raptors. The big man is dealing with tightness in his left calf. Towns practiced on Monday, which is a good sign that he might be ready to return from a one-game absence. Assuming Towns remains out, the Knicks will lean on Mitchell Robinson and Ariel Hukporti at the center position. Robinson returned to the starting lineup on Sunday against the Orlando Magic, grabbing a game-high 13 rebounds in 25 minutes. He also contributed well on the defensive end. Hukporti had six points, seven rebounds, and three blocks off the bench in 23 minutes.

Karl-Anthony Towns Ruled Out Against Orlando

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) won't play on Sunday against Orlando. Despite making sporadic appearances on the injury report, KAT hasn't missed a game. However, he experienced left calf tightness during the meeting with the Utah Jazz on Friday night, so the team will keep him out. Towns next chance to suit up will be on Tuesday, when the Knicks face the Toronto Raptors in the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup. As far as Sunday's contest is concerned, Mitchell Robinson, averaging 4.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks in nine starts, is the favorite to replace Towns in the rotation.

OG Anunoby Returns to Knicks LIneup Friday

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (hamstring) will return from a nine-game absence on Friday against the Utah Jazz, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports. He has been named a starter for the matchup. The Knicks initially listed Anunoby as questionable for the game. He has missed a couple of weeks with a hamstring strain, so it would be surprising if Anunoby played big minutes right off the bat. As a result of Anunoby's return, Miles McBride will drop to the bench. He will probably still have a significant role in the rotation, but coming off the bench will make it more difficult for McBride to make a fantasy impact.

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.
