  • Knicks' Cameron Payne: Not playing Wednesday

    Payne (hamstring) is out for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

    Payne will miss a second consecutive contest due to a left hamstring strain, and the floor general doesn't have a timetable for his return. That said, he wouldn't see regular minutes even if available, so his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions. His next chance to play will come against the Bucks on Friday.

  • Knicks' Jericho Sims: Minimal impact so far

    Sims is averaging 1.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.5 blocks per game across six appearances off the bench this season.

    Sims was expected to contend for a spot in a depleted frontcourt without Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and Precious Achiuwa (hamstring), but such hasn't been the case. The Knicks have played Karl-Anthony Towns at center and have elected to go with forwards at center in small-ball lineups rather than handing Sims heavy minutes. Thus, Sims isn't an appealing option in most fantasy formats, and his playing time will be even more scarce once Robinson or Achiuwa are ready to return to the hardwood.

  • Knicks' Cameron Payne: Iffy against Atlanta

    Payne (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Hawks.

    Payne is in danger of missing his second straight contest Wednesday while dealing with a strained left hamstring. If Payne is unable to suit up against Atlanta, Miles McBride and Tyler Kolek are candidates to receive increased playing time.

  • Knicks' OG Anunoby: Efficient from deep in defeat

    Anunoby totaled 21 points (7-14 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 109-97 loss to the Rockets.

    The 27-year-old finished as the Knicks' second-highest scorer behind Jalen Brunson (29) in the loss. Moreover, Anunoby displayed his value as a three-and-D specialist, racking up three steals-plus-blocks and draining a season-high five threes on six attempts. The forward continues to stuff the stat sheet, and he has shot an extremely efficient 44.8 percent from downtown through six regular-season outings.

  • Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Contributes double-double in loss

    Towns ended with 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 19 rebounds and one block over 32 minutes during Monday's 109-97 loss to Houston.

    Towns struggled from the field Monday, though he did produce his fifth consecutive double-double in the loss. The superstar big man has been fairly efficient thus far, shooting 52.3 percent from the field. Moreover, he has looked more comfortable with his new club while putting up 17-plus shots in each of his last three games. However, Towns is averaging only 3.2 three-point attempts per game, which would be his lowest mark since his rookie season.

  • Knicks' Miles McBride: Shooting woes in defeat

    McBride ended Monday's 109-97 loss to Houston with zero points (0-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two assists, one block and two steals across 26 minutes.

    After three consecutive games reaching double figures, McBride went cold from the field while negatively impacting the game as the Knicks' bench combined for only three points. The 24-year-old has served as the primary option off the bench thus far, though he has struggled from the field in the club's last three games, shooting 24.1 percent.

  • Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Leads all scorers in loss

    Brunson logged 29 points (9-24 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-9 FT), eight assists, three rebounds and one steal across 42 minutes during Monday's 109-97 loss to the Rockets.

    Brunson scored a game-high 29 points, though he struggled from the field in the loss. The star point guard remains a consistent offensive threat, scoring at least 20 points in all six regular-season outings. However, Brunson has struggled from inside the arc. He has shot 46.3 percent from the field despite shooting 50.0 percent from deep.

  • Knicks' Boo Buie: Receives two-way deal

    Buie agreed to a two-way contract with the Knicks on Wednesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Buie will fill the vacant two-way spot that opened up Tuesday, when center Ariel Hukporti was upgraded to a standard NBA contract. An undrafted rookie guard out of Northwestern, Buie is expected to see the bulk of his playing time in 2024-25 with the Knicks' G League affiliate, the Westchester Knicks.

  • Knicks' Cameron Payne: Won't play Monday

    Payne (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Rockets, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

    Payne has been downgraded from doubtful to out Monday due to a strained left hamstring. The 30-year-old has averaged 5.6 points, 3.2 assists and 2.0 rebounds across 15.4 minutes in five regular-season outings. In Payne's absence, Tyler Kolek and Pacome Dadiet are candidates for a slight increase in minutes off the bench alongside Miles McBride.

  • Knicks' Matt Ryan: Signs deal with Knicks

    Ryan agreed to a contract with the Knicks on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

    Ryan was recently selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 G League Draft by the Knicks' affiliate in Westchester, but he'll get moved up to the parent club to fill the 14th spot on the 15-man roster. A career 41.1 percent shooter from beyond the arc over parts of three seasons in the NBA, Ryan will provide the Knicks with additional floor spacing, but he's not guaranteed to be regularly featured in head coach Tom Thibodeau's rotation.

  • Knicks' Ariel Hukporti: Upgraded to two-year contract

    The Knicks converted Hukporti from a two-way contract to a two-year standard NBA contract Monday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. The second year of the contract is a team option.

    The No. 58 overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft, Hukporti has appeared in four of the Knicks' first five games of the season, missing his lone field-goal attempt while pulling down seven rebounds and blocking four shots across 29 total minutes. The Knicks had opened the campaign with only 12 players on the 15-man roster, but because league rules require teams to have at least 14 players on standard contracts for no more than 28 days during a season, Hukporti was upgraded from his two-way deal to help fulfill the roster requirement. While the fact that he's been moved off a two-way deal means he won't be restricted to the amount of games in which he can be active for the Knicks, Hukporti still looks to be on the outside looking in for a rotation spot, even while fellow big men Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) remain sidelined. Jericho Sims appears to have at least temporarily settled in as the Knicks' preferred backup center behind Karl-Anthony Towns.

  • Knicks' Cameron Payne: Doubtful for Monday

    Payne is doubtful for Monday's game against the Rockets due to a strained left hamstring, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

    Payne is unlikely to suit up Monday, though it shouldn't cause too many waves in the Knicks' rotation, as he has averaged 11.3 minutes per game over his last three outings. If the 30-year-old doesn't suit up Monday, Tyler Kolek and Pacome Dadiet are candidates for a slight increase in minutes off the bench alongside Miles McBride.

  • Knicks' Josh Hart: Near double-double vs. Pistons

    Hart had 13 points (6-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), nine rebounds, four assists and two steals over 37 minutes during Friday's 128-98 win over the Pistons.

    Hart was the Knicks' second-leading rebounder Friday behind Karl-Anthony Towns (11), and the former was one board shy of logging his fourth consecutive double-double. Through the first five games of the 2024-25 campaign, Hart is averaging 14.2 points on 55.3 percent shooting, 10.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals over 35.6 minutes per game.

  • Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Three swipes vs. Detroit

    Bridges supplied 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 35 minutes during Friday's 128-98 win over the Pistons.

    Bridges took a back seat to Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns in the scoring category Friday, but Bridges showed off his defensive chops with a team-leading three steals. Bridges has logged two or more steals in each of his last three outings, and for the season he's averaging 17.6 points on 52.2 percent shooting, 3.8 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals over 36.6 minutes per game.
