  • 74-104-2 12th Place
    • Not running yet
      Head coach Tom Thibodeau said Sunday that Anunoby (hamstring) has been doing "pool work" but has yet to resume running, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

      Advice: Anunoby has missed the Knicks' last two games after suffering a left hamstring strain in the Knicks' 130-121 win in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinal round matchup with the Pacers. Based on Thibodeau's comments, Anunoby doesn't look as though he's on track to play in Tuesday's Game 5, though the Knicks haven't officially declared his status for that contest.

    • 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
       
    • 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.

    • Nears triple-double in Game 1 win
      Hart tallied 24 points (9-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 13 rebounds, eight assists, three steals and one block over 48 minutes in Monday's 121-117 win over Indiana in Game 1 of the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

      Advice: Hart did a little bit of everything for New York to boost the team to a Game 1 victory, leading all players in Monday's contest in rebounds and assists to go along with a team-high trio of steals and coming up two dimes shy of a triple-double. Hart has seen a heavy amount of playing time so far this postseason, resulting in tallying a double-double in four of his seven playoff contests. Hart, who posted his highest point total of the playoffs, has surpassed the 20-point mark on four occasions. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:46 pm
       
    • Josh Hart records 24/13/8/2/1 line in Game 1 win
      Josh Hart accumulated 24 points (9-of-13 FGs, 5-of-8 FTs), 13 rebounds, eight assists, two steals, one block, and one 3-pointer in 48 minutes in Monday’s 121-117 win over Indiana.

      Advice: The Knicks used a late rally to draw first blood in the series, with the Villanova trio of Hart, Jalen Brunson, and Donte DiVincenzo combining to score 33 of the team’s 39 fourth-quarter points. Hart was excellent in Game 1, with one exception: turnovers. He was responsible for five, occasionally playing too fast for his own good. However, the overall production from the Knicks’ “iron man,” who played at least 46 minutes in four of the team’s six first-round games against Philadelphia, made up for the high turnover count. Hart and the Knicks host Game 2 on Wednesday. Rotoworld Monday, 7:23 pm
