    • OG Anunoby (hamstring) out for Game 4 Sunday
      OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) is out for Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

      Advice: ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Friday that Anunoby was not expected to be available for Game 4, so this status update is unsurprising. Precious Achiuwa started Game 3 and had issues defending Pascal Siakam. Anunoby’s absence also freed up rotation minutes for Alec Burks, who scored 14 points on Friday.

    • Ruled out for Game 4
      Anunoby (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: This is hardly a surprise given how tricky hamstring injuries are to deal with. Anunoby has been traveling with the team and is likely getting treatment around the clock. In the meantime, the Knicks are likely to play a very tight rotation with Alec Burks getting extended run in Game 4. Rotowire.com Saturday, 2:33 pm
       
    • Pulls down 18 boards in Game 3 loss
      Hart posted 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 18 rebounds, four assists and two steals over 43 minutes during Friday's 111-106 loss to Indiana in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: Hart didn't do much on the offensive end of the court and barely reached double-digit scoring, but as has been the case all year long, he made his presence felt on the glass. The 18 rebounds represented his best output in the current playoff run in that category, and he's grabbed double-digit boards in all but two of his nine playoff appearances. He's averaging 17.1 points and 13.3 rebounds per game in the postseason so far. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:15 am
       
    • Josh Hart corrals 18 rebounds in Game 3 defeat
      Josh Hart played 43 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Pacers, finishing with 10 points (4-of-7 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 18 rebounds, four assists, two steals, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: For the first time since Game 6 of the Knicks’ first-round series against Philadelphia, Hart rested. He still played 43 minutes, a surprisingly low number for the indefatigable wing. Hart corralled a playoff career-high 18 rebounds while dishing out four assists, remaining an impactful option on both ends of the floor. With OG Anunoby (hamstring) unavailable, the Knicks may get Hart a few minutes on the bench in the first half of Sunday’s Game 4. As long as Hart’s healthy, he’ll be on the court in crunch time.

    • Woj: OG Anunoby could also miss Game 4 Sunday
      According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, OG Anunoby (left hamstring strain) is not expected to be available for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Pacers.

      Advice: Anunoby injured his hamstring during the third quarter of Wednesday’s Game 2 victory. While it has been reported that he will also miss the second of New York’s two games in Indianapolis, there’s a possibility that OG will be sidelined beyond that. Precious Achiuwa started Friday’s Game 3, and Anunoby’s absence also frees up additional minutes for Miles McBride. Rotoworld Friday, 4:24 pm
       
    • Out for Game 3, but with team
      Anunoby (hamstring) remains out for Friday's Game 3 against the Pacers, but he traveled with the Knicks to Indiana, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

      Advice: Anunoby will miss the game due to left hamstring soreness, but his presence with the team suggests the Knicks aren't preparing for him to miss extended time. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:43 pm
       
    • Derrick White crashes to earth, scores 10 points
      Derrick White amassed 10 points (3-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, five assists, one block, and one 3-pointer in 30 minutes in Thursday’s Game 2 loss to the Cavaliers.

      Advice: Having hit seven 3-pointers in Boston’s Game 1 blowout of the Cavs, White appeared to be in for a big series. However, his shot went missing in Game 2, and Derrick wasn’t the only Celtics player to struggle. As a team, Boston shot 8-of-35 from beyond the arc, with Cleveland outscoring them by a 39-24 margin. Thursday’s performance ended a three-game streak of at least 25 points for White, who scored 20 or more in three of Boston’s five games against Miami in the first round. He’ll look to bounce back in Game 3 on Saturday. Rotoworld Thursday, 7:07 pm
       
    • Josh Hart records 19/15/7/1/1 line in Game 2 win
      Josh Hart played all 48 minutes in Wednesday’s win over the Pacers, accumulating 19 points (8-of-12 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 15 rebounds, seven assists, one steal, one block, and one 3-pointer.

      Advice: Hart has played every minute of the Knicks’ last two games and has shown no signs of slowing down. If there has been an issue for him, it’s the turnovers, as he was responsible for five more on Wednesday. That said, Hart has done enough across the board to minimize the impact of those mistakes. The Knicks head to Indiana with a 2-0 lead, but injuries suffered by Jalen Brunson (foot) and OG Anunoby (hamstring) could put even more responsibility on Hart’s plate for Friday’s Game 3.

    • Shines in Game 1 victory
      White registered 25 points (9-16 FG, 7-12 3Pt), one rebound and five assists in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 120-95 victory over Cleveland in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: White embraced a bigger role on offense on a night when Jayson Tatum struggled (7-19 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), and the former responded by delivering his third consecutive game with 25 or more points. White has taken a step forward due to Kristaps Porzingis (calf) being sidelined, and it'd be fair to consider him Boston's third-best offensive weapon under the current lineup construction. White will aim to keep the streak alive in Game 2 on Thursday, as the Celtics have gone 20-3 this season when he's scored 20 or more points between the regular season and the playoffs.
