Landry Shamet

NYK Guard #44

Landry Shamet (knee) is out for Sunday’s game against the Wizards.

Shamet exited Friday’s win over the Nets after 22 minutes due to soreness in his right knee, and he will sit out Sunday’s game as well. If Josh Hart (knee) is available, he’ll reclaim his usual spot in the starting lineup. If not, Mohamed Diawara may be asked to fill the void.
Josh Hart

NYK Guard #3

Josh Hart (knee) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Wizards.

Hart did not play in Friday’s win over the Nets, resulting in Landry Shamet moving into the starting lineup. However, with Shamet (knee) ruled out for Sunday’s game, Mohamed Diawara may be the next man up if Hart remains out.
Landry Shamet

NYK Guard #44

Landry Shamet (knee) scored three points (1-of-5 FGs) with three rebounds, one assist, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in Friday’s win over the Nets.

Josh Hart’s absence with a knee injury meant a spot start for Shamet, but he was unable to take full advantage of the opportunity. The Knicks’ wing played 22 minutes before exiting during the third quarter with a sore right knee, and he did not offer much value before the departure. If the Knicks are down both wings on Sunday against the Wizards, Mohamed Diawara (eight points, seven rebounds, five assists, one block and two three-pointers) may be the next man up.
Jalen Brunson

NYK Guard #11

Jalen Brunson accounted for 17 points (7-of-19 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, eight assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Friday’s win over the Nets.

Brunson and the Knicks had a rough night in Brooklyn, but he got going in the fourth quarter and helped take home the victory. His percentages weren’t good, but category-league managers can benefit from the rebounds, assists and steals. Brunson and the Knicks end Week 21 on Sunday against the Wizards, another team headed for the draft lottery.
Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Center-Forward #32

Karl-Anthony Towns finished Friday’s win over the Nets with 26 points (7-of-16 FGs, 11-of-13 FTs), 15 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one three-pointer.

Questionable for Friday’s game for personal reasons, Towns was the biggest reason why the Knicks avoided what would have been an embarrassing defeat. Six of his game-high 15 rebounds came on the offensive glass, and KAT also led all players in points. With the Knicks hosting the Wizards on Sunday, that’s another game in which Towns may showcase, especially with Washington also playing on Saturday.
Landry Shamet

NYK Guard #44

Jalen Brunson, Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Friday’s game against the Nets.

While the Knicks will have Towns (personal) for Friday’s game, they’re without Josh Hart (knee). Shamet returns to the starting lineup to fill the void, and there should also be more minutes available to Mohamed Diawara off the bench.
Karl-Anthony Towns

NYK Center-Forward #32

Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) is available for Friday’s game against the Nets.

Added to the Knicks’ injury report on Friday morning, Towns is good to go. He’ll take on his usual role as the starting center, with Mitchell Robinson remaining in the backup spot.

NYK Center-Forward #32

Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Nets.

Towns was left off the initial injury report, but popped up as questionable for personal reasons Friday morning. The 30-year-old center’s status for the game against the Nets is up in the air. Mitchell Robinson would start with Ariel Hukporti as the backup center if Towns is ruled out.
Josh Hart

NYK Guard #3

Josh Hart (knee) is out for Friday’s game against the Nets.

After enjoying his most productive scoring effort as a Knick in Tuesday’s win over the Pacers, Hart will not play on Friday. His absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup for Landry Shamet, who is worth streaming in this spot.
Jalen Brunson

NYK Guard #11

Jalen Brunson (ankle, neck) is not on the injury report for Friday’s game against the Nets.

Knicks coach Mike Brown expected Brunson to be back for this game, and he was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Now, he’ll officially return, which will push Jose Alvarado back to the bench after a strong performance as a starter.
