Sochan

Sochan’s deal with Portland will mark the forward’s third stop in his NBA career. He split last season between the Spurs and Knicks, ultimately finishing as an NBA champion in New York. Sochan saw career lows in playing time, points, rebounds, and assists in 2025-26, but a change of scenery could benefit him. Still, the Trail Blazers are loaded with talent, so there’s no guarantee Sochan will carve out a big enough role to make a fantasy impact.

Sochan is good to go after initially being listed as probable due to tightness in his left hamstring. He was not in the rotation for the Knicks’ first-round series against the Hawks, and that’s unlikely to change in Round 2.

Sochan hasn’t logged many significant minutes for the Knicks during the postseason thus far, making his injury status for Monday’s opening game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals likely unimpactful. Nonetheless, he’ll provide defensive versatility on the wing, should he see the floor.

While Towns recorded another double-double in Friday’s win over the Raptors, Robinson sat out because it was the Knicks’ second game in as many nights. With both out for Sunday’s regular-season finale, Ariel Hukporti and Jeremy Sochan should play quality minutes, with one moving into the starting lineup.

Sochan is good to go after initially being probable for Sunday’s game. However, his availability does not affect fantasy basketball, especially with Josh Hart (knee) back in the fold.

Sochan is on track to be available after sitting out Friday’s win over the Pacers. However, he is not guaranteed to play rotation minutes, so his status does not affect fantasy basketball.

Sochan was a late addition to the injury report. His absence won’t affect fantasy basketball, but it should mean more playing time for Mohamed Diawara, who was already ahead of Sochan in the rotation.

Sochan’s late addition to the injury report don’t bode well for his availability. An absence for Sochan could mean more playing time for Mo Diawara, and Diawara would be worth streaming if Josh Hart or Karl-Anthony Towns also sit out.

Shamet is dealing with a cervical sprain in his neck. If he’s unable to play on Sunday, the Knicks may give rookie Mohamed Diawara additional rotation minutes off the bench. Jeremy Sochan may also experience an increase in minutes, serving as another defender to throw at LeBron James.

Knicks head coach Mike Brown said before Saturday’s win over the Rockets that he did not expect Robinson to play in Chicago, an unsurprising statement given how the center’s availability has been handled this season. Robinson played 18 minutes on Saturday, finishing with six points and four rebounds. His absence on Sunday frees up minutes for Ariel Hukporti and possibly Jeremy Sochan as well.
