The big news is that Hart is back from a high right ankle sprain. In addition to starting, he will not be restricted in any way. As a result, Miles McBride heads to the bench, which lowers his fantasy ceiling.

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.

Hart was initially listed as questionable with a high right ankle sprain. The 30-year-old shooting guard missed the last eight games with the injury. Hart could be on a minutes limit in his first game back Sunday and Miles McBride could remain in the starting lineup ahead of him.

Clared to resume basketball activities a few days after Christmas, Shamet has recently done some controlled contact work, according to Knicks head coach Mike Brown. He still doesn’t have a clearly defined return timeline, so the Knicks will continue without one of their reserve wings for the time being.

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.

After missing the last eight games with a high right ankle sprain, Hart could potentially return on Sunday. Miles McBride has performed well as his most recent replacement in the starting lineup. If Hart’s minutes are limited, the Knicks could leave McBride in the starting five for the time being.

Having recorded back-to-back 20-point games for the first time since mid-December, Butler could not extend that run to three on Friday. While the rebounds and assists were solid, this is part of the issue for fantasy managers. While capable of doing a lot more, many nights feel as if he hasn’t done much more than what’s required. The fantasy ranking may be good, but one can’t blame managers for lamenting what they’re missing on most nights regarding Butler’s production.

A big part of Melton’s fantasy appeal is his ability to record complete stat lines. That didn’t happen on Friday, but the Warriors’ guard had one of his best offensive performances of the season. The 19 points were three shy of his season-high, which was recorded on Wednesday against the Bucks. Melton has been a safe bet for assists and defensive stats in the past, so there isn’t too much need for concern following Friday’s lack of numbers in those categories. And he played 19 minutes; if Melton can consistently get closer to 25 minutes, he can be a game-changer down the stretch in fantasy leagues.

Curry and the Warriors pulled away with a dominant fourth quarter, outscoring the Kings by a 40-19 margin and winning by a 137-104 final score. And he didn’t make a shot during the final frame, missing both of his attempts and then watching the final four-plus minutes from the bench. Curry did enough before the fourth quarter to offer solid value, and he finished with a season-high 10 assists and his second double-double of the season. Over the past two weeks, Curry has been a top-10 player in eight- and nine-cat formats.

Towns recorded another double-double on Friday, but the impact was muted. Not only did he fail to record any defensive stats, but the 7-footer was responsible for a team-high five turnovers. The Knicks’ current run of five losses in six games has been discouraging for all involved, most especially Towns and those who have him rostered. Over the past two weeks, KAT has been a sixth-round player in nine-cat formats.

Once again, McBride got off to a good start, scoring 12 points in the first quarter of Friday’s game. Unfortunately, he didn’t offer much value offensively in the final three periods, but the final stat line was solid. Over the past two weeks, McBride has been close to a top-50 player in nine-cat formats. He’s worth rostering in deep leagues until Josh Hart returns from his high ankle sprain, and that could happen during the Knicks’ current four-game road trip.

Brunson and the Knicks have lost five of their last six, and he has just one 30-point game during this stretch. While his percentages against the Suns were good, the point guard finished with one less turnover (four) than assists (five). Over the past two weeks, he has offered fourth-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. While that doesn’t align with Brunson’s Yahoo! ADP, his drop has not been as sharp as a few other Knicks during this 1-5 stretch.

Hart has been out since suffering a sprained right ankle during a Christmas Day win over the Cavaliers. However, he has been cleared for contact and is “very close” to a return to action, according to his head coach. Miles McBride has been the most recent replacement in the starting lineup, and he may have solid deep-league value after Hart returns.

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.

Payton was initially listed as probable, so his availability isn’t a surprise. He will return after a one-game absence, which will result in Gui Santos losing out on a few minutes.

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.
