Miles McBride to Suit up on Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (pelvis) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. It was uncertain if McBride would be able to play after he made an early exit from Sunday's game. He played 11 minutes on Sunday before leaving due to what is being called a pelvic injury. He has been cleared for Tuesday's game, but the Knicks will likely monitor him closely. McBride is recovering from sports hernia surgery, so they don't want to re-aggravate the issue. The 25-year-old guard won't be an ideal streaming option for Tuesday's slate.

Miles McBride to See Limited Minutes Sunday

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (pelvic) will return to action on Sunday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Stefan Bondy of the New York Post reports. He hasn't played since late January and underwent sports hernia surgery in February. According to Knicks head coach Mike Brown, McBride will have a minutes limit in Sunday's game. McBride's return will complicate the situation for Jose Alvarado and Jordan Clarkson. Although the mid-season injury was a setback for him, McBride has had a career year in New York, averaging 12.9 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 28.0 minutes per game.

Landry Shamet to Remain Out Thursday

New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet (knee) will miss a third consecutive game on Thursday against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran hurt his right knee last week, and it might take a bit of time until Shamet is ready to play again. In the meantime, Jordan Clarkson and Jose Alvarado have a chance to make a bigger impact in the rotation. Of the two, Clarkson has performed better in recent games, coming off a 10-point, five-assist outing against the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night.

Josh Hart Good to Go Sunday

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards after missing one contest with a right knee issue. Hart should resume his usual starting role and minutes workload after averaging 15.6 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.8 three-pointers across his last five games. His ability to contribute across categories keeps him rostered in standard leagues. Hart's return likely pushes Mohamed Diawara back into a smaller bench role, while Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns continue leading New York's offensive usage.

Landry Shamet Leaves Friday's Game with Knee Issue

New York Knicks guard/forward Landry Shamet (knee) left Friday's 93-92 win over Brooklyn in the third quarter and is questionable for Sunday's game against Washington after logging three points, three rebounds, two steals, one assist, and one block in 22 minutes. His absence could open rotation minutes with fantasy playoffs underway. Jordan Clarkson had nine points in 22 minutes and could be a deep-league option for scoring, while Mohamed Diawara put up eight points, seven rebounds, and five assists in 20 minutes and is more of a streamer in deeper formats.

Karl-Anthony Towns Set to Suit Up Against Brooklyn

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.

Josh Hart Ruled Out Friday Against Brooklyn

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) will not play Friday against the Nets due to a right knee issue, opening a spot in the starting lineup. Landry Shamet is expected to step in after posting nine points with two three-pointers and five rebounds in 37 minutes during his last start, though he remains a fringe fantasy option. Jordan Clarkson could also see extra run after a 10-point effort in 20 minutes, while Mohamed Diawara may pick up limited minutes. Clarkson and Diawara remain more watch-list options unless additional injuries open up clearer opportunities.

Jalen Brunson  • PG  •  Knicks

Jalen Brunson Set to Play Against Brooklyn

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle/neck) is off the injury report and expected to play Friday against the Nets after missing one game due to ankle injury management and a cervical strain. The All-Star has been a strong fantasy anchor when active, averaging 27.8 points, 8.2 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 2.2 three-pointers, and 1.4 steals over his last five games. His return should push Jose Alvarado back to a reserve role, while Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges may see slightly reduced playmaking duties. Brunson remains a must-start option during the fantasy playoffs.

Mitchell Robinson  • C  •  Knicks

Mitchell Robinson is Cleared for Tuesday's Game

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (back) has been upgraded to available ahead of Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was initially tagged as questionable for this contest, but Robinson is feeling good enough to play. Karl-Anthony Towns is active as well, so Robinson will resume his role as the primary backup center. Robinson is an elite rebounder and excellent at blocking shots, but doesn't offer a ton of upside outside of that. Fantasy managers can feel safe getting Robinson back in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

Jalen Brunson  • PG  •  Knicks

Jalen Brunson Gets Downgraded to Out

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He started the day off as questionable, but has been downgraded all the way to out. This is obviously a tough blow to fantasy managers with Brunson's next chance to play not coming until Friday against the Nets. The absence of Brunson should mean increased playing time for Jose Alvarado, Landry Shamet, and possibly Tyler Kolek. Shamet is the best streaming choice among the three guards due to his ability to shoot the three-ball.

Mitchell Robinson  • C  •  Knicks

Mitchell Robinson Downgraded to Questionable for Tuesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (back) was added to the team's injury report for Tuesday's matchup against the Pacers as questionable with back tightness. Robinson had a few big games on the Knicks' last road trip while filling in for Karl-Anthony Towns, but he returned to the bench on Sunday and had four points and 10 rebounds. If Robinson does play, he'll be in a great matchup, as he showed with 12 points and 22 rebounds against Indiana last week. However, since the Pacers are so short-handed, the Knicks may opt to play it safe and not push Robinson. If he's out, Ariel Hukporti would likely gain playing time and usage as the team's primary backup center. behind Karl-Anthony Towns.

Jalen Brunson Unlikely to Play Tuesday Against Indiana

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle, neck) was originally questionable for Tuesday's home game against the Pacers, but the team downgraded him to doubtful early in the day on Tuesday. Brunson played 36 minutes on Sunday night and had 30 points and nine assists against the Warriors, but he'll likely get Tuesday off, leaving more work for Karl-Anthony Towns as the focus of the offense, while OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges could get more usage as Landry Shamet and Jose Calderon fill in at guard in Brunson's spot. The Pacers have been such a favorable matchup that whoever gets playing time against them should be set up for fantasy success on Tuesday.

Jalen Brunson Questionable for Tuesday's Game

New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson (ankle, neck) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Indiana Pacers. Brunson produced 29 points and nine assists against the Pacers on Friday night, but he may have to sit out Tuesday's rematch due to ankle and neck injuries. Brunson's absence would create additional playing opportunities for Jose Alvarado, Jordan Clarkson, and Landry Shamet. Additionally, Karl-Anthony Towns will be expected to be much more active on the offensive end. Towns has averaged 28.2 points and 14.0 rebounds in five games without Brunson this season.

Jeremy Sochan  • PF  •  Knicks

Jeremy Sochan Returns to Action Sunday

New York Knicks forward/center Jeremy Sochan (illness) is available for Sunday's matchup against the Warriors after sitting out Friday. The 22-year-old has played only limited reserve minutes recently, including a three-minute outing March 11 against Utah when he posted four points, one rebound, and one steal. With Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, and Mitchell Robinson healthy, Sochan remains buried in the frontcourt rotation. His limited role caps his fantasy value, making him a low-impact option outside of very deep leagues.

Josh Hart  • SF  •  Knicks

Josh Hart Cleared to Play Sunday Against Golden State

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Warriors after missing the team's previous two contests. His return should push Landry Shamet back into a reserve role while restoring Hart's usual workload on the wing. Hart has remained a steady fantasy contributor when active, averaging 12.0 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.0 steals across his last five games. His rebounding from the wing and across-the-board production make him a solid hold in category leagues, while Shamet likely loses most of his short-term streaming appeal.

Karl-Anthony Towns Rejoins Knicks Lineup Sunday

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.

Josh Hart  • SF  •  Knicks

Josh Hart is Unavailable on Friday

New York Knicks forward Josh Hart (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was downgraded from questionable to doubtful, but now he'll officially take a seat. Hart is dealing with left knee soreness that hopefully won't keep him sidelined for long. The expectation is that Landry Shamet will start while Jordan Clarkson and Mohamed Diawara see expanded roles as well. Among the three, Clarkson is the best streaming option after posting 27 points across 26 minutes of action on Wednesday.

Jeremy Sochan  • PF  •  Knicks

Jeremy Sochan Won't Suit up on Friday

New York Knicks forward Jeremy Sochan (illness) is ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Sochan was a late addition to the injury report and will ultimately take a seat due to a lingering illness. Normally, his status isn't noteworthy, but he was likely in line for more minutes with Josh Hart (knee) unavailable. Mohamed Diawara figures to play an expanded role, which could lead to deep league value for Friday's slate. This illness shouldn't keep Sochan out for too long, as his next chance to play will come on Sunday against the Golden State Warriors.

Karl-Anthony Towns is Ruled Out on Friday

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.

Josh Hart  • SF  •  Knicks

Josh Hart May Miss Another Game Friday

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is considered questionable for Friday's tilt against the Indiana Pacers. He is bothered by a sore left knee and missed Wednesday's win over Utah after being questionable. It remains to be seen whether the same happens on Friday night. While Landry Shamet moved into the first unit to replace Hart, Jordan Clarkson benefited the most from his absence against Utah. He reappeared as a regular in the rotation and popped off for a season-high 27 points against his former team. Shamet had a quiet night with seven points, three rebounds, four assists, and one steal.
