OG Anunoby DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

New York Knicks forwards OG Anunoby (thumb) and Josh Hart (knee) will play on Friday against the Cavaliers. Anunoby and Hart weren't available for Thursday's loss to the Detroit Pistons. As a result, Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa moved into the starting lineup, with the duo combining for 30 points, 12 boards, nine assists, six steals, and three blocks. While the absence of Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) should keep them involved, they aren't expected to be nearly as productive for DFS managers.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (thumb) has been listed as questionable for Friday's contest with the East-leading Cleveland Cavaliers. He's a true game-time decision according to head coach Tom Thibodeau, along with Karl-Anthony Towns (knee), Jalen Brunson (ankle), and Josh Hart (knee). Anunoby was forced to miss their last game due to the same thumb sprain that he's dealing with now. If he's unable to play again, Mikal Bridges would likely soak up a lot of minutes while P.J. Tucker and Landry Shamet get some more run off of the bench. Tucker clocked 27 minutes in their last game and registered three points and six rebounds, so finding a streaming option may be better elsewhere.

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (thumb) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. He will miss his first game since Feb. 20 due to a thumb sprain. Josh Hart (knee) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) have also been ruled out for Thursday's action, which should significantly increase Precious Achiuwa's playing time. Miles McBride and Landry Shamet are also expected to receive more opportunities in a favorable fantasy matchup against a team that ranks eighth in pace while holding a mediocre defensive rating.

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 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.
