New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) won't play in Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Anunoby played in New York's past three contests following a month and a half on the shelf due to surgery on his right elbow, and the Knicks will give the three-and-D wing the night off after he struggled to shoot the ball (1-for-8) in Saturday's win over the Sacramento Kings. Expect Anunoby to return in Thursday's showdown with the defending-champion Denver Nuggets for the final outing of the team's four-game West Coast road trip. Over 18 games in the Big Apple without Anunoby this season, Precious Achiuwa is averaging 12.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.8 blocks, and 1.1 steals and makes for a strong plug-and-play fantasy option as the most likely candidate to join the starting five against a middling Dubs defense.
New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) has drawn another questionable tag ahead of Monday night. Initially, there were some reports about the team taking it easy on Anunoby during his first few games or so, but that hasn't been the case yet. In his first three games back, he's played 28, 35, and 33 minutes respectively. He originally popped up as questionable ahead of their last game but ended up playing a full game. One thing about head coach Tom Thibodeau is that he's going to play his starters heavy minutes. If Anunoby isn't experiencing any setbacks and suits up, fantasy managers can expect him to play a normal workload. If he sits out, Donte DiVincenzo will take on a bigger role while Bojan Bogdanovic and Precious Achiuwa will see added opportunities.
New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) is tagged as questionable heading into Saturday's game in Sacramento. He's not injured. But considering the 26-year-old recently returned from a lengthy layoff, head coach Tom Thibodeau could keep him out for this one. That said, Anunoby has played well in his two games since returning, averaging 13.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.5 steals. If he can't play on Saturday, the slumping Bojan Bogdanovic would presumably see more minutes.
The New York Knicks have removed forward OG Anunoby (elbow) from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The Knicks are 13-2 with Anunoby in the lineup this season, but with a 205.5-point implied total on tap for Thursday's matchup, the reigning steals champion may not attract much DFS rostership on the six-game slate. Anunoby posted 14 points, two triples, and a steal in Tuesday's rout of the Philadelphia 76ers.
New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) is officially active for Tuesday's meeting with Philadelphia. Head coach Tom Thibodeau indicated the former Raptor would be available if things went well in warm-ups, so the update isn't much of a surprise. Anunoby will also get the start, so he should be added to all fantasy lineups. However, he could see limited work in his first game in over a month, so Precious Achiuwa and Bojan Bogdanovic will remain viable fantasy assets in all formats.
