Due to right ankle injury management and a cervical strain, Brunson is questionable for Tuesday’s matchup with the Pacers. If he’s unable to play, the Knicks will likely turn to Jose Alvarado to fill the void, with Tyler Kolek entering the rotation.

The Knicks fell behind early on Sunday, losing the first quarter 35-21, but it was all New York for the rest of the game. Brunson led the way, falling just short of a double-double. The 29-year-old point guard has provided sixth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Knicks have three games upcoming in Week 21, starting with a matchup against the Pacers on Tuesday.

Hart was upgraded to probable Sunday afternoon, so his availability isn’t a surprise. The 31-year-old shooting guard has missed the last two games with left knee soreness. Landry Shamet will likely move back to the bench with Hart returning to the starting lineup.

Hart has missed the Knicks’ last two games due to a sore left knee, resulting in Landry Shamet moving into the starting lineup. Shamet, who would remain in that role if Hart can’t play on Sunday, can provide three-pointers in that role, but he struggled in Friday’s win over the Pacers.

Towns is back after a one-game absence, having missed Friday’s win over the Pacers. His return means that Mitchell Robinson, who grabbed a career-high 22 rebounds, will return to his usual reserve role.

While fellow Knicks wing Mikal Bridges (11 points, four rebounds and one three-pointer) struggled during the team’s five-game road trip, that was not the case for Anunoby. OG scored at least 22 points in four of the five games, including Friday’s win over the Pacers. Since the All-Star break, Anunoby has provided top-50 value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Bridges, on the other hand, sits well outside the top-100. The Knicks end Week 20 with a game against the Warriors on Sunday.

Having grabbed 21 rebounds on three separate occasions in his NBA career, Robinson broke that seal on Friday. Starting for Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), the Knicks’ center shot 60 percent from the field and recorded 22 rebounds. Add in the steals and blocks, and this was an excellent night for those who streamed Robinson. If Towns can’t play in Sunday’s game against the Warriors, do not hesitate to add Robinson.

The Knicks may have been made to work harder than expected on Friday, as the lottery-bound Pacers played their key players significant minutes. However, that didn’t prevent Brunson from recording a solid stat line, extending his streak of games with at least 24 points to four. The Knicks play once more in Week 20, a home game against the Warriors on Sunday.

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.

The Knicks will be without two starters for Friday’s game, with Towns joining Hart on the sidelines. Landry Shamet, who started for Hart in Wednesday’s win over the Jazz, should retain that role in the final game of New York’s road trip. The other replacement in the starting lineup is Mitchell Robinson, with Ariel Hukporti serving as the backup.

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.

The Pacers don’t play a traditional center apart from Jay Huff, and they have been resting a lot of their players lately, so the Knicks may be trying to give Towns a rest day before their Sunday game against the Warriors. If Towns were to miss this game, Mitchell Robinson would likely start, and Mo Diawara would play more minutes as a small-ball center.

The Pacers are certainly not trying to win many games right now, but neither were the Jazz, and they were up on the Knicks for a while on Wednesday. If Hart sits out on Friday, the Knicks will again turn to Landry Shamet for a bigger role with Jordan Clarkson playing around 25 minutes, as he did against the Jazz when he scored 27 points and grabbed five rebounds.

Anunoby, who shot 70 percent from the field on Wednesday, has scored at least 22 points in three of his last four appearances. While he did record a complete stat line against the Jazz, his numbers were limited beyond points and three-pointers. The Knicks still have two more games in Week 20, starting with the Pacers on Friday. And with the schedule easing up a bit, fantasy managers will hope for more robust stat lines from Anunoby.

For the first time this season, Towns has recorded seven assists or more in consecutive games. And KAT has been excellent since the All-Star break, providing first-round value in 12-team, eight-cat formats. While a few other Knicks have battled inconsistency since the break, that has not been an issue for Towns, much to the delight of managers who have him on their fantasy rosters.

Like many of his teammates, Brunson started slowly on Wednesday. However, he turned things around in the second half, shooting 6-of-8 from the field and scoring 18 points. Brunson also recorded six assists after halftime as the Knicks avoided what would have been an embarrassing defeat. The Knicks play two more games in Week 20, starting with the Pacers on Friday.

Clarkson’s return to Utah was a special one, as the veteran guard gave the Knicks much-needed production off the bench. With Josh Hart (knee) unavailable and New York getting off to a terrible start, JC came through with his most productive performance of the season. The 27 points were a season-high for Clarkson, who also put up solid numbers in rebounds, assists, three-pointers and percentages. One game does not make him a player to add in fantasy leagues, but it may ensure Clarkson of another opportunity the next time the Knicks play.

The Knicks won’t have Josh Hart for Wednesday’s game, as he’s been ruled out with a knee injury. Shamet moves into the starting lineup, and he’s a solid streaming option for fantasy managers who need three-point production.

Hart was initially listed as questionable but is now expected to miss this game. Both Landry Shamet and Mohamed Diawara are candidates to replace Hart in the starting unit, though both should see a bump in minutes regardless.

Hart is dealing with soreness in his left knee. If he’s unable to play against the Jazz, Landry Shamet and Mohamed Diawara are potential replacements in the starting lineup. Both players would see their opportunities increase if Hart sits, regardless of who starts.

Robinson sat out on Monday, which was the second night of a back-to-back. He’ll be back to occupying his typical reserve role against Utah, which means Ariel Hukporti will lose out on minutes after logging 12 as the backup against the Clippers.

Hart finished Monday’s defeat with his 13th double-double of the season and third since the All-Star break. Due to decreased production across multiple categories, his fantasy value has dipped significantly since the All-Star break. The Knicks end their road trip with games against the Jazz and Pacers, two matchups that may serve Hart well. Fantasy managers will certainly hope that’s the case, as his value has been trending in the wrong direction, even with Monday’s double-double.

After dropping 34 points in the Knicks’ blowout of the Nuggets to open their five-game road trip, Anunoby struggled against the Lakers on Sunday. The wing rebounded nicely on Monday, even if it did not result in a Knicks’ victory. Since the All-Star break, Anunoby has provided top-50 value in nine-cat formats. While his season-long value has been better than that, his consistency has made OG a player whom fantasy managers have been able to rely on all season long.
