Guerschon

Yabusele

Robinson is off the injury report after sitting out Wednesday’s win over the Raptors, which was the Knicks’ second game in as many nights. His return likely pushes Guerschon Yabusele and Ariel Hukporti out of the rotation entirely, as they played a combined 15 minutes on Wednesday.

Yabusele will be back after a two-game absence. However, when healthy, Yabusele’s role has been minimal this season. His return won’t impact the Knicks’ rotation.

Yabusele was initially listed as questionable with a quad injury. The 30-year-old power forward missed Friday’s game against the Suns, though his absence doesn’t impact the Knicks rotation or fantasy basketball significantly. With Josh Hart (ankle) returning, Yabusele might not have played even if he were available.

Yabusele did not play in Friday’s loss to the Suns, and his absence did not significantly affect the Knicks’ rotation or fantasy basketball. And with Josh Hart (ankle) also questionable for Sunday, Yabusele could fall out of the rotation entirely.

Yabusele was added to the injury report on Friday afternoon. Even with Josh Hart (ankle) still out, Yabusele’s absence will not significantly affect fantasy basketball or the Knicks’ rotation.

Yabusele is a late addition to the injury report, but his role has been too small this year for his absence to impact the rotation dramatically. Ariel Hukporti or Mohamed Diawara will likely take on a few extra minutes in his absence.

Towns missed Friday’s game against Atlanta and could remain out for another. Mitchell Robinson (ankle) was sidelined as well, which allowed Ariel Hukporti to start at center and for Guerschon Yabusele to fill most of the backup minutes. Robinson is off the injury report, so Hukporti won’t get another start. Robinson will start if KAT is unavailable for a second straight game.

Hukporti exited Monday’s win over the Pelicans during the second quarter after suffering a mouth contusion. If he can play on Wednesday, the second-year center will play rotation minutes, as Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is out. If Hukporti can’t play, Guerschon Yabusele and Trey Jemison will pick up additional minutes.

Hukporti took a Zion Williamson forearm to the mouth during the second quarter of Monday’s game. Rushed back to the locker room to receive medical attention, he has been diagnosed with a mouth laceration and will not return. With Mitchell Robinson out for injury management reasons, Guerschon Yabusele and Trey Jemison have picked up rotation minutes.

Yabusele is good to go after missing Tuesday’s loss to the Timberwolves. However, he has not been guaranteed rotation minutes recently, so the forward’s availability does not affect fantasy basketball.
