New York Knicks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This marks the fourth game in a row that McBride has missed due to a left hamstring issue. His absence should mean increased playing time for Cameron Payne and Landry Shamet. Both players are only playing minutes in the teens and aren't contributing enough to be considered streaming options for Wednesday's slate.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is available ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The superstar center is back in action after sitting out of Monday's contest due to right knee tendinitis. There is no word of Towns being limited after a one-game absence, so fantasy managers should expect him to have his full workload. Jericho Sims played 29 minutes on Monday, so he's expected to fall in the rotation with Towns available. Fantasy managers can feel safe getting Towns back in their lineups ahead of tip-off.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Toronto. The four-time All-Star may have to sit out a second consecutive game due to a problem with his right knee. Jericho Sims took over the starting role from Towns on Monday versus Orlando. He gobbled up 10 rebounds in 29 minutes but didn't do much else. Precious Achiuwa also has a chance to log additional minutes without Towns and finished Monday's contest with 10 points and two rebounds in 22 minutes.

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (calf) will play versus Orlando. He recently missed a game because of calf injury. However, despite carrying injury designations, the 28-year-old has been on the floor, most recently scoring 33 points in Saturday's loss to Chicago. With Karl-Anthony Towns (hamstring) ruled out, Brunson should be in line for significantly more scoring opportunities, giving him added value for fantasy managers.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (hamstring) won't play in Monday's meeting with the Orlando Magic. KAT injured his hamstring during Saturday's loss to the Chicago Bulls and was considered questionable heading into this one. However, he won't be out there against the short-handed Magic, so his next chance to play will be on Wednesday versus Toronto. Fortunately, Jalen Brunson (calf) is cleared to suit up, so he'll pick up some additional scoring chances. The same should apply for Josh Hart, Mikal Bridges, and OG Anunoby, with Precious Achiuwa in line for a significant bump in fantasy production.
