McBride injured his left ankle during Sunday’s win over the Magic, with Orlando guard Desmond Bane landing on the Knicks guard’s leg after attempting to block his layup attempt. McBride did not return after exiting, and he’ll undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. If he misses time, the Knicks will have to rely more on Jordan Clarkson for scoring off the bench, and inconsistency has been an issue for him this season.

Robinson filled in for Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) and made the most of his opportunity. The big man led all players in rebounds and did what he normally does, providing efficient shooting with just one turnover. He corralled eight offensive boards, helping New York get some second-chance looks in the close victory. Robinson should remain a starter until KAT is cleared to return.

Brunson hit 10-of-23 shots from the floor and managed to convert only one of his seven three-point attempts. His 9-of-12 mark from the charity stripe, however, buoyed his scoring. New York’s superstar guard has now scored at least 30 points in consecutive games and reached that mark 11 times in 21 outings.

Ingram’s worst game of the season represented Toronto’s struggles in this game.

While Walter entered Thursday having started four of Toronto’s previous five games due to RJ Barrett’s knee injury, he hadn’t taken advantage of the opportunity. The one double-digit scoring effort in that run occurred in the game that the second-year guard did not start, and he averaged 6.6 points on 36.4 percent shooting. There were no such issues for Walter against the Lakers, as he tallied a season-high point total. One game doesn’t make Walter trustworthy in most fantasy leagues, but Thursday was a step in the right direction.

Ingram had a difficult night from beyond the arc, missing all five of his three-point attempts in the 123-120 defeat. However, he shot well over 50 percent from two, preserving the overall field-goal percentage, and the rebounds and assists were also helpful to fantasy managers. With Ingram not providing consistently good value in the defensive categories or assists, his margin for error is relatively slim when discussing fantasy value. As a result, he’s slipped outside the top-75 in eight-cat formats after a promising start to the season.

Barnes and the Raptors didn’t get the victory on Thursday, but he provided fantasy managers with another exquisite stat line. The forward/guard finished one assist shy of his first triple-double of the season, and he did so on excellent percentages. Over the past two weeks, Barnes has provided top-10 per-game value in eight-cat formats, slightly better than his season-long production. While it’s still early, he’s trending toward making the second All-Star Game appearance of his career.

While he didn’t shoot the ball as well as he did in Tuesday’s loss to the Celtics, Hart flirted with a triple-double against the Hornets.

After a slow start to the season, Hart is shooting 49.7 percent from the field, and he’s shot 14-of-29 from three over his last five games. At a minimum, he’s properly managing the finger injury that he aggravated just before the start of training camp.

While he matched his season-high with 11 assists, Brunson had his worst scoring game of the season on Tuesday. The 15 points were a season low, and the Knicks’ point guard had not shot below 30 percent from the field since the season-opening win over Cleveland.

Hart has scored at least 19 points in four straight games, and the overall value has made him one of the best options in fantasy basketball over this period. Over the past week, the Knicks forward has been a top-10 player in eight- and nine-cat formats, cracking the top-5 in the former. After a slow start to the season, in part due to finger and back injuries, Hart has locked into a comfortable role and flourished.

He’s providing third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats, performing slightly better in the former.

After scoring five points on 2-of-4 from the field in the first half, Bridges caught fire and nearly helped the Knicks erase a 21-point second-half deficit.

The good news for those who have him rostered is that Bridges’ fantasy value isn’t solely dependent on points. He continues to provide top-10 value in nine-cat formats but should not be considered a “sell-high” option.

His return also impacted Sandro Mamukelashvili (6/7/2/0/1), who was limited to 19 minutes off the bench. Poeltl played 26 minutes, which aligns with his average for the season. While he did surpass 30 minutes in the two games before Sunday’s night off, Poeltl’s playing time will likely hover in the mid-to-high 20s range.

They’ve dropped nine straight games against the Knicks dating back to January 22, 2023.

Not only did Quickley record a season-high assist total, but he notched his second double-double on Saturday. His fantasy value has consistently hovered within the top-75 in eight- and nine-cat formats thus far, with a lower-than-expected free-throw percentage being the issue. A career 85.3 percent shooter from the charity stripe, Quickley is making 74.5 percent of his attempts this season.
