OG Anunoby's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) underwent surgery on Thursday. The former Raptor, who was traded to New York in December, has averaged 15.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.8 steals in 14 appearances with the Knicks. However, he's missed the last five games because of an elbow issue. After further tests, it was revealed that Anunoby had a loose bone fragment in his right elbow, requiring him to go under the knife. He's expected to resume basketball activities in three weeks. But with the All-Star break on the horizon, the blow to fantasy managers might not be as impactful. That said, Donte DiVincenzo and the newly acquired Bojan Bogdanovic could see more work until Anunoby is healthy.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) remains out for Thursday's tilt versus the Dallas Mavericks. The Knicks have updated Anunoby's injury from inflammation to a bone spur irritation in his right elbow, which can't help but sound a bit more complicated than the original listing. With the All-Star break on the horizon, New York could opt to hold Anunoby out until play resumes to get this issue fully resolved, but the forward nonetheless has a chance to end a six-game absence on Saturday against the visiting Indiana Pacers in the final game of a six-game homestand. Head coach Tom Thibodeau has tightened his rotations to eight players with Quentin Grimes (knee) out of the mix, leaving behind ample playing time for Precious Achiuwa. Averaging 13.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 1.4 steals, and 1.4 blocks in 39.8 minutes across his past five games, Achiuwa remains a strong fantasy streamer on Thursday.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This marks the fifth game in a row that Anunoby will sit out due to elbow inflammation. Precious Achiuwa should remain in the starting five until Anunoby can play again. Achiuwa was quiet when he first joined the team. However, he has played better lately and is a decent streaming choice until Anunoby returns.

According to Tim Bontemps of ESPN, New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) remains without a return date. The former Raptor has missed the team's previous four games because of elbow inflammation, and it appears there's a realistic chance he won't play on Tuesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. It's a tough blow for the Knicks and Anunoby, with the 26-year-old averaging 15.6 points, 1.8 steals, and 1.1 blocks since the trade that sent him from Toronto to New York. At any rate, until Anunoby is cleared to return, Precious Achiuwa, averaging 12.3 points, 1.5 blocks, and 1.0 steals in four starts this season, is worth streaming in any fantasy format.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This marks the fourth game in a row that Anunoby has missed due to right elbow inflammation. His absence means that Josh Hart and Precious Achiuwa should remain in the starting five. Both have stepped up lately and provided top-100 fantasy value with the Knicks shorthanded. That being said, Hart and Achiuwa are looking like must-have fantasy options until the Knicks get healthy.
