New York Knicks guard/forwardBojan Bogdanovic (foot, wrist) will have season-ending surgeries on his left foot and left wrist, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. The veteran sharpshooter has been playing with ligament damage in his left wrist, but he suffered a left-foot injury during his first minute in Game 4 on Sunday against the 76ers. He averaged 16.7 minutes in the series' first three games before lasting only 1:11 on Sunday. In Game 4, Precious AchiuwaandMiles McBride were effective in helping the Knicks win. They should continue to see an uptick in minutes, especially with Bogdanovic out.

New York Knicks guard/forward Bojan Bogdanovic (ankle) won't be available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the 76ers. The veteran sniper was hurt in Sunday's Game 4 and has been ruled out with a left foot contusion. Bogdanovic averaged 16.7 minutes in the first three games of the series before lasting only 1:11 on Sunday. The second unit was led by Precious Achiuwa and Miles McBride in the contest, and the two should have a big part to play again on Tuesday after helping the Knicks grab a 3-1 series lead with effective performances.

New York Knicks forward Bojan Bogdanovic (ankle) won't return to Sunday's playoff meeting with the 76ers. According to multiple reports on Sunday morning, the veteran sharpshooter has torn ligaments in his left wrist and could need surgery during the offseason. However, he wants to continue playing until the end of the postseason, although he suffered a left ankle contusion in Game 4 while diving for the ball. Bogdanovic has averaged 8.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in the series versus Philadelphia. But the Knicks are down Julius Randle (shoulder) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle), so Bogdanovic could have gotten more involved. DFS managers should expect to see him on the injury report ahead of Game 5 on Tuesday. If he doesn't play, Precious Achiuwa could get a few extra minutes.

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, but if the team has its way, he won't be going anywhere soon. According to general manager Sean Marks, tying Claxton down will be the "No. 1 priority" for the team in the summer. Marks added that he hopes Claxton will be a Net for "a very long time." The comments came after Brooklyn's new head coach, Jordi Fernandez, said at his introductory press conference that he believes Claxton has the potential to win the Defensive Player of the Year Award. Claxton, the 31st pick of the 2019 draft, has just completed his fifth NBA season. He averaged 11.8 points with a career-high 9.9 rebounds and 2.1 blocks in 29.8 minutes.

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (wrist) won't play on Sunday versus the Philadelphia 76ers. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the New York Knicks. But his absence against Philly means his year is over. However, Sharpe had the best season of his career, averaging 6.8 points and 6.4 boards. The 22-year-old could see more work in the middle for the Nets in 2024-25, depending on what the future holds for Nicolas Claxton. Yet, as far as the regular-season finale is concerned, Claxton could see significantly fewer minutes than usual, meaning Noah Clowney, Jalen Wilson, and Trendon Watford are worth considering for DFS contests.
