OG Anunoby (toe) is out for Tuesday’s game against the Pacers.

Tuesday’s game will be the third that Anunoby has missed with a toe injury. Landry Shamet replaced him in the lineup for Sunday’s win over the Celtics and may retain that role. If so, Shamet would be worth streaming. Also, look for rookie Mohamed Diawara to pick up additional minutes off the bench.

Anthony Gill (hand) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Gill was held out of Sunday’s loss to the Heat, as he suffered a sprained hand the day prior. If the veteran forward/center can play, don’t be surprised if the Wizards cut starting center Alex Sarr’s playing time, as they did in Thursday’s win over the Pistons.

Kyshawn George (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers.

George exited Sunday’s loss to the Heat during the third quarter and did not return. If he’s unable to play against the Cavaliers, rookie Jamir Watkons would likely move into the starting lineup.

Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Coulibaly took a shot to the face during the fourth quarter of Sunday’s loss to the Heat, but that isn’t the reason for his appearance on the injury report. The Wizards’ wing is dealing with a sore right heel, so he’s questionable. If Coulibaly can’t play on Wednesday, Will Riley would benefit the most in terms of playing time.

Jaden Hardy (rest) is not on the injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Hardy will be available to potentially make his Wizards’ debut on Wednesday. While he may not be in a position to impact fantasy basketball, Hardy is someone whose playing time may increase after the All-Star break if Washington looks to limit Kyshawn George’s minutes.

Tre Johnson (ankle) is not on the injury report for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers.

Out since January 29, Johnson will be available for the Wizards’ final game before the All-Star break. While a minutes restriction may be in the cards for the rookie on Wednesday, he should be safe from his minutes being limited after the All-Star break. Johnson is someone who should be rostered ahead of the silly season.

Justin Champagnie recorded 13 points (4-of-11 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss to the Heat.

Champagnie has reached double figures in each of his last three appearances. While the playing time, 25 minutes on Sunday, wasn’t the best, he remains in the starting lineup. For that reason, Champagnie is worth the risk for managers seeking players with “silly season standout” potential. The Wizards only play one of their four Week 17 games before the All-Star break, on Wednesday against the Cavaliers, so there won’t be much to be gained from grabbing Champagnie off the waiver wire on Monday.

Alex Sarr finished Sunday’s loss to the Heat with 12 points (6-of-13 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), 12 rebounds, five assists and one steal.

Sarr struggled with foul trouble in Sunday’s blowout loss, but that didn’t keep him from recording his 12th double-double of the season. The 7-footer still logged 26 minutes against the Heat, an encouraging sign after he played 18 in Thursday’s win over the Pistons. The Wizards will play four games in Week 17, with three scheduled for after the All-Star break.

Bilal Coulibaly (eye) tallied seven points (2-of-7 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and one three-pointer in Sunday’s loss ot the Heat.

Coulibaly took a shot to the face from Heat guard Kasparas Jakučionis with 5:36 remaining in the fourth quarter and did not return. The third-year wing finished with seven points, four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and one three-pointer. Will Riley (nine points, one rebound, one steal, one block and one three-pointer) was limited to 21 minutes, an understandable development since he played 45 on Saturday. If Coulibaly misses time, Riley is the most likely beneficiary.

Kyshawn George (ankle) will not return to Sunday’s game against the Heat.

George sprained his left ankle while playing defense during the third quarter of Sunday’s game. The second-year wing limped to the locker room immediately after being subbed out, and he will not return to the game. George finished with 13 points, two rebounds, three assists, one block and three three-pointers in 19 minutes. Jamir Watkins, who started Saturday’s loss to the Nets, will likely see his playing time increase if George misses additional games.

Landry Shamet finished Sunday’s win over the Celtics with three points (1-of-5 FGs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and one three-pointer.

With OG Anunoby (toe) out, Shamet moved into the starting lineup on Sunday. Unfortunately for those who may have streamed him for the three-point potential, the veteran wing shot 1-of-4 from three and offered limited value in his 28 minutes. Rookie Mohamed Diawara had the better day, contributing 10 points (4-of-4 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and two three-pointers in 27 minutes off the bench. The streaming values of Shamet and Diawara moving forward depend on Anunoby’s availability.

Jose Alvarado tallied 12 points (5-of-12 FGs), two rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block and two three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Celtics.

Alvarado made his Knicks debut on Sunday, and with Miles McBride (core) out for the foreseeable future, the New York City native’s return home takes on added importance. And Alvarado showed what he’s capable of on Sunday, recording a complete stat line in his 25 minutes on the floor. As has been the case with McBride at various points, there were also stretches when the Knicks played Alvarado and Jalen Brunson together on Sunday. For the few who may have been holding out hope for Tyler Kolek to get a few more minutes with McBride out, he did not check into Sunday’s game until there were just over three minutes remaining in the fourth quarter and the game was decided.

Josh Hart (ankle) amassed 19 points (7-of-14 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, three assists and two three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Celtics.

After tweaking his left ankle during Friday’s loss to the Pistons, Hart playing on Sunday wasn’t a sure thing. Not only did he play, but the wing’s offensive output was a needed supplement to Jalen Brunson’s game-high 31 points. Before he first injured the ankle during Tuesday’s win over the Wizards, Hart was on a run of three straight games with at least 20 points. Depending on how much longer OG Anunoby (toe) is out, the Knicks will need Sunday’s version of Hart more often.

Jalen Brunson finished Sunday’s win over the Celtics with 31 points (12-of-21 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, eight assists and four three-pointers.

Coming off of his worst performance of the season in Friday’s 38-point loss to the Pistons, Brunson showed up in Boston seemingly intent on redeeming himself. The Knicks’ guard did so, recording 15 points and four assists in the first quarter alone and finishing with a game-high 31 points. And after shooting 0-of-8 from three in Detroit, Brunson made four of his eight attempts on Sunday. The Knicks play five games in Week 17, two of which are scheduled for before the All-Star break.

Wizards GM Will Dawkins said on Sunday that he anticipates Anthony Davis (hand) playing at some point this season.

Two days after NBA insider Chris Haynes reported that Davis was unlikely to play again this season, Dawkins said that he anticipates the forward/center returning at some point. In the short term, Davis will return to Dallas to work with his medical team as he recovers from ligament damage in his left hand. Dawkins also noted that the 4-to-6 week timeline provided in mid-January is closer to 6-to-10 weeks. If Davis were to play this season, the timeline suggests he won’t be available until sometime in March.

Tristan Vukčević (knee) is available for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Vukčević was in the starting lineup for Saturday’s loss to the Nets, but he only played 20 minutes. With Alex Sarr (ankle) also available, Vukčević may play even less. However, Sarr only played 18 minutes in Thursday’s win over the Pistons.

Alex Sarr (ankle) is available for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Sarr is good to go after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Nets. He’ll be back in the starting lineup, with Tristan Vukčević heading to the bench.

Kyshawn George (knee) is available for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

George is back after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Nets. As a result of his return, Jamir Watkins will return to the bench, with his already-low streaming value taking a hit.

Bilal Coulibaly (back) is available for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Coulibaly is back after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Nets. As a result of his return, Will Riley will likely head to the bench. However, the rookie is worth holding onto, as he should still play plenty.

Anthony Gill (hand) is out for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Gill will sit out Sunday’s game with a right hand contusion, leaving the Wizards down a frontcourt option off the bench. If Alex Sarr (ankle) and Tristan Vukčević (knee) can play, the Wizards should be fine in terms of their frontcourt depth.

Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Landry Shamet, Josh Hart and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Towns is back in the Knicks’ starting lineup after a one-game absence, pushing Mitchell Robinson to the bench. The other change to the lineup is Shamet, who replaces Mohamed Diawara. This is the second consecutive game that the Knicks will be without OG Anunoby (toe).

Josh Hart (ankle) is available for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Hart aggravated his sprained left ankle during Friday’s loss to the Pistons, exiting during the third quarter. He’ll occupy his usual place within the Knicks’ starting lineup in Boston.

Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) is available for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Towns did not play in Friday’s loss to the Pistons, having suffered a laceration above his right eye during Wednesday’s win over the Nuggets. His return could push Mitchell Robinson to the bench. However, with Boston having started Luka Garza and Neemias Queta the last two games, the Knicks could choose to go big. In that case, Mohamed Diawara would head to the bench.

OG Anunoby (toe) is out for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Anuoby will miss a second consecutive game with a toe injury. Mohamed Diawara started Friday’s loss to the Pistons but offered little streaming value. If the Celtics stick with two bigs in their starting lineup, the Knicks could choose to start Mitchell Robinson alongside Karl-Anthony Towns. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Robinson is valuable because of his rebounds and blocks.

Tre Johnson (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Sunday’s game will be the sixth that Johnson has missed since spraining his left ankle during a January 29 win over the Bucks. Bub Carrington has been the replacement in the starting lineup and should retain that role until the rookie is cleared to return.

Tristan Vukčević (knee) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

With Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable, Vukčević started Saturday’s loss to the Nets. However, he only played 20 minutes, with veteran Anthony Gill (hand) logging 28 off the bench. If Sarr, who’s also listed as questionable, plays, there isn’t much to be gained from rostering Vukčević in fantasy leagues, even on a four-game day.

D’Angelo Russell (not with team) is out for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Russell has yet to join the Wizards since being sent to the nation’s capital as part of the Anthony Davis trade. And it’s fair to wonder if the veteran guard is a buyout candidate, given the number of young perimeter players on the roster. There’s no need to roster Russell in fantasy leagues.

Jaden Hardy (rest) is out for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Hardy’s Wizards debut will have to wait for at least one more game. Given his role in Dallas, fantasy managers should hold off on adding the fourth-year guard until it’s made clear that there’s a place for him within the Wizards’ rotation.

Anthony Gill (hand) is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Heat.

Gill has played between 27 and 30 minutes in three of Washington’s last four games, with his playing time dictated mainly by the availability of starter Alex Sarr (ankle). With the second-year center also listed as questionable, Gill could be in for another heavy workload if he plays, but Sarr doesn’t.

Alex Sarr (ankle) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Limited to 18 minutes in Thursday’s win over the Pistons, Sarr did not play against the Nets on Saturday. Tristan Vukčević (knee), who started in Brooklyn, is also questionable for Sunday’s game, and he isn’t the most dependable streaming option. Hopefully, if Sarr plays, he’ll be able to play more than he did in Detroit.

Kyshawn George (knee) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

George did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Nets, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for rookie Jamir Watkins. Watkins played 45 minutes, finishing with 13 points, one rebound, one assist, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer. That isn’t the most robust stat line, but Watkins playing that much stands out. On a four-game day, he would be worth streaming if George sits again.

Bilal Coulibaly (back) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Heat.

Coulibaly did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Nets, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Will Riley. Even if the third-year wing can play against Miami, those who have added Riley recently need to hold onto him. The rookie should play plenty the rest of the season, regardless of Coulibaly’s availability.

Tristan Vukčević produced 14 points (6-of-12 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Nets.

Marvin Bagley is now in Dallas, so Vukčević was the next man up with Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable. The 7-footer’s performance was somewhat underwhelming, especially after Wizards head coach Brian Keefe felt the need to pull Vukčević from the game after an uninspired start to the third quarter. Vuk was able to get back into the game, but he only logged 20 minutes. Even on nights when Sarr isn’t available, there’s little to be gained from rostering Vukčević.

Will Riley accumulated 27 points (10-of-19 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, two assists, three steals, one block and four three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the Nets.

Like his teammates, Riley got off to a slow start on Saturday. But the Wizards were able to make Saturday’s defeat more respectable, thanks in part to their rookie wing. After scoring 20 points in a win over the Pistons on Thursday, Riley recorded a new season-high on Saturday and has reached double figures in five straight. Unlike Kyshawn George, Riley feels like a safe bet to play significant minutes the rest of the season. Don’t hesitate to pick him up if he’s sitting on the waiver wire.

Justin Champagnie tallied 21 points (5-of-8 FGs, 10-of-10 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one three-pointer in Saturday’s loss to the Nets.

For fantasy managers with their eyes on Champagnie as a potential “silly season standout,” Saturday’s performance was a mixed bag. The overall stat line was nice, with one exception: playing time. On a day when the Wizards were without Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr, Champagnie played 22 minutes. All three could be back for Sunday’s game against the Heat, so Saturday may represent a missed opportunity for Champagnie managers.

Josh Hart (ankle) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Hart returned from a one-game absence Friday against the Pistons only to suffer a sprained ankle in the 38-point drubbing at the hands of Detroit. The 30-year-old shooting guard is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Celtics and the Knicks could be severely short-handed with Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) and OG Anunoby (toe) also on the injury report.

OG Anunoby (toe) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Anunoby had a 20/8/4 line in Wednesday’s win over the Nuggets, but somewhere along the way he injured his toe. The 28-year-old small forward was initially probable for Friday’s game in Detroit, but was downgraded to questionable before being ruled out. The Knicks promptly lost by 38 points without him. Mohamed Diawara would likely start if Anunoby is ruled out again, but the game against the Celtics could also get out of hand if the Knicks are missing multiple starters again.

Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Celtics.

Bub Carrington, Will Riley, Jamir Watkins, Justin Champagnie and Tristan Vukčević will start Saturday’s game against the Nets.

Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr are out for Saturday’s game, opening up three spots in the starting lineup. The resulting voids are being filled by Riley, Watkins and Vukčević, with the former being the most valuable fantasy option.

Alex Sarr (ankle) is out for Saturday’s game against the Nets.

Sarr is dealing with a sore right ankle, and Saturday’s game is the first of two games in as many days for the Wizards. Tristan Vukčević and Anthony Gill will have to handle the center responsibilities in Sarr’s absence.

Kyshawn George (knee) is out for Saturday’s game against the Nets.

A right knee contusion will keep George out of Saturday’s game, which is the first of two in as many days for the Wizards. Will Riley, Justin Champagnie and Jamir Watkins should all receive more opportunities, with the first two being the superior options for fantasy managers.

Bilal Coulibaly (back) is out for Saturday’s game against the Nets.

Coulibaly will sit out the first game of Washington’s back-to-back to end Week 16. With Kyshawn George also out, the Wizards will rely even more on Justin Champagnie and Will Riley. Both players are worth streaming and should also have value during the silly season.

Josh Hart (leg) recorded five points (2-of-7 FGs), six rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer in Friday’s loss to the Pistons.

Hart was back in the Knicks’ lineup after sitting out Wednesday’s win over the Nuggets, and he may have aggravated the ankle injury that was the reason for his absence. The Knicks’ wing pulled up while dribbling down the court during the third quarter and would exit shortly thereafter. There was no announcement regarding his status for the rest of the night, but Hart never returned to the bench after going back to the locker room. New York ends its Week 16 in Boston on Sunday.

Jalen Brunson tallied 12 points (4-of-20 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in Friday’s loss to the Pistons.

Brunson had a brutal night in Detroit. Finding room to get his shots proved extremely difficult with OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns unavailable, as the Pistons devoted even more of their defensive attention to the point guard. Brunson missed all eight of his three-point attempts and did not play at all during the fourth quarter. Fantasy managers will hope to get a better effort from Brunson on Sunday against the Celtics.

Mikal Bridges finished Friday’s loss to the Pistons with 19 points (7-of-16 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), one rebound, two assists and three three-pointers.

With OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns out, Bridges was essentially the only Knicks player who could string together good stretches of offensive basketball on Friday. The overall stat line was line, but the Knicks’ wing scored a game-high 19 points. Bridges and the Knicks, who saw their eight-game win streak come to a screeching halt, will look to bounce back on Sunday in Boston.

OG Anunoby (toe) will not play on Friday against the Pistons.

Anunoby will miss his 13th game of the season on Friday, as he battles a toe injury. The veteran wing has been a staple in the Knicks’ starting unit since being traded to New York during the 2023-24 season. Without him, the Knicks’ path to a ninth straight win becomes more difficult. Mohamed Diawara will start and could see his opportunities increase.

Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, Mohamed Diawara and Mitchell Robinson will start Friday’s game against the Pistons.

Hart is back for the Knicks after sitting out Wednesday’s double-overtime win over the Nuggets, but they won’t have OG Anunoby (toe) or Karl-Anthony Towns (eye). As a result, Diawara and Robinson move into the starting lineup, and Jordan Clarkson has been bumped back to the bench.

Josh Hart (ankle) is available for Friday’s game against the Pistons.

Hart is good to go after a one-game absence, likely pushing Jordan Clarkson to the bench. However, there’s a chance that Clarkson remains with the starters, as OG Anunoby (toe) is a game-time decision. While Hart needs to be rostered in most fantasy leagues, Clarkson isn’t a must-stream player, regardless of league format.

Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) will miss Friday’s game against the Pistons.

If the Knicks want to extend their win streak to nine games, it’ll have to be done without Towns. The All-Star center will be sidelined on Friday, leaving Mitchell Robinson as the likely candidate to fill in for Towns in the starting lineup. Robinson doesn’t offer the same upside but could be on double-double watch.

SNY’s Ian Begley reports that Miles McBride (core) is expected to miss six to eight weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a sports hernia.

McBride underwent the procedure on Friday, one day after the Knicks acquired Jose Alvarado from the Pelicans. With the reported timeline, there’s a chance the guard is available to play before the start of the postseason. While they await McBride’s return, the Knicks will rely on the combination of Alvarado (once he joins the team), Tyler Kolek and Jordan Clarkson to fill the void.

OG Anunoby (toe) has been downgraded to questionable for Friday’s matchup with the Pistons.

Anunoby’s status doesn’t bode well for his availability, and if he’s sidelined, Mohamed Diawara could join the starting five. More minutes should be available for Landry Shamet, and Josh Hart should handle an increased workload.

Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) is doubtful for Friday’s matchup with the Pistons.

With Towns expected to sit this one out, Mitchell Robinson should be in line for a spot start, and Ariel Hukporti will back him up. Robinson is worth streaming for managers in need of rebounds and blocked shots.

OG Anunoby (toe) is probable to play against the Pistons on Friday.

Anunoby is managing soreness in his right toe, but it isn’t expected to keep him out of the lineup against Detroit. He is averaging 21.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 3.1 triples while shooting 58.6 percent over the Knicks’ last seven games and will look to stay hot in this one.

Josh Hart (ankle) is questionable to play against the Pistons on Friday.

Hart missed Wednesday’s game against Denver, which allowed Jordan Clarkson to start in his place. Clarkson scored 11 points in 24 minutes while Landry Shamet scored 16 points in 36 minutes off the bench. The duo will continue to play significant roles if Hart remains out for another game.

Karl-Anthony Towns (eye) is questionable to play against the Pistons on Friday.

Towns has only missed three games this season, but he may not be available against Detroit. In that scenario, Mitchell Robinson will start at center, with Ariel Hukporti filling out the reserve minutes down low as the Knicks look to win a ninth straight game.

Miles McBride is set to undergo surgery on a core muscle on Friday and could be sidelined until the playoffs.

This injury is often referred to as a sports hernia. The Knicks just traded for Jose Alvarado, who will help make up for McBride’s absence. Alvarado should be the sixth man, while Tyler Kolek and Jordan Clarkson will still be around to fill out some of the depth minutes when Jalen Brunson isn’t on the floor.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports Jose Alvarado has been traded to the Knicks in exchange for Dalen Terry, two second-round picks and cash.

Alvarado will provide some extra depth in the backcourt for New York, meaning he’ll join Miles McBride, Tyler Kolek and Jordan Clarkson in the rotation. Unless more moves are coming, that won’t leave enough minutes for any of them to provide value in standard leagues, barring an injury to a starter. Alvarado’s defense and playmaking should help the Knicks when Brunson is off the floor in the postseason.

The Knicks have reportedly acquired Dalen Terry from the Bulls in exchange for Guerschon Yabusele.

The Knicks have added to their backcourt, taking a chance on a 2022 first-round pick who will be a free agent in the summer. Terry could never carve out a consistent role for himself in Chicago, and he’s unlikely to find that in New York. It should be noted that Miles McBride has missed the last four games due to a left ankle injury, and there’s concern that he could be out for an extended period. Yet, even with that being the case, Terry’s addition does not move the needle in fantasy basketball.

Landry Shamet amassed 16 points (6-of-15 FGs), two rebounds, three assists and four three-pointers.

On a night when the Knicks didn’t get much production out of Mikal Bridges (five points, four rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer), Shamet stepped up off the bench. For the first time since returning from a shoulder injury, he’s reached double figures in three consecutive games. Shamet still isn’t at a point where he should be rostered in fantasy leagues, but he has given the Knicks solid production off the bench.

Karl-Anthony Towns finished Wednesday’s double-overtime win over the Nuggets with 24 points (9-of-13 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), 12 rebounds, one assist and two three-pointers.

Wednesday’s game was the first for Towns since January 19, when he scored 22 in a blowout loss to the Mavericks. While KAT’s offensive production has taken a hit during New York’s eight-game win streak, he has been consistently productive as a rebounder, averaging 13.4 caroms per game. Given his skill, the offense will come around. The good news for the Knicks and for fantasy managers is that KAT’s rebounding prowess has been a constant.
