New York Knicks DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will be in the lineup on Thursday against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Knicks listed Robinson as questionable for the game on the initial injury report. His status has now been upgraded to available, with Robinson ready to make his fourth appearance since recovering from ankle surgery. Robinson will play a limited role behind starting center Karl-Anthony Towns (personal), who returns from a one-game absence. The 26-year-old has averaged 4.0 points and 5.0 rebounds in 13.7 minutes so far.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (thumb) will play in Thursday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. A thumb sprain initially left Anunoby with a questionable tag. On Thursday, Anunoby has a chance to score 20-plus points in a third consecutive game for the first time this season. He finished off last week with a 23-point effort against the Miami Heat and started this week's action by notching 29 points against the Golden State Warriors.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's clash against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is set to return to action after missing one game for personal reasons. Now that Towns is available again, Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will likely head back to the second unit. Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) may fall out of the rotation entirely if he is cleared for action. Both he and Robinson are carrying questionable tags ahead of Thursday's game.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (thumb) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Anunoby appears to be dealing with a minor thumb sprain, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned. The 27-year-old has been playing big minutes lately with over 40 minutes of action in three of his last four games. His absence would likely free up additional playing time for Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) who is questionable for this game. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Thursday for another update.

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The big man suited up on Tuesday, but he was only able to play 15 minutes during that game. The Knicks continue to be cautious with the 26-year-old while he works his way back to full health. Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) would likely benefit if Robinson is unable to play, but he's also on the injury report. This could end up being a busy night for Karl-Anthony Towns if both players are unable to go.
