Knicks' P.J. Tucker: Plans to ink 10-day deal with NYK
Tucker plans to join the Knicks on a short-term contract, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The Raptors recently waived Tucker after he was shipped to Toronto ahead of the NBA trade deadline in February. Although his status was in doubt for the rest of the season, he'll have an ideal opportunity to prove he still has some basketball left in him in New York, with the Knicks needing some depth on the roster after Jalen Brunson's ankle injury.

Knicks' Tyler Kolek: Returns to parent club
The Knicks recalled Kolek on Friday ahead of Monday's game against the Kings.
Kolek will be available for Monday's game in Sacramento, giving the Knicks some depth in the backcourt with Jalen Brunson (ankle) out. The 23-year-old guard has played in 29 games for New York this season, averaging 5.1 minutes per contest.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Drops 22 in loss to LAC
Bridges amassed 22 points (8-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block over 43 minutes during Friday's 105-95 loss to the Clippers.
The 28-year-old wing turned an efficient shooting night into his second performance of 20-plus points over the last 13 games. Bridges may need to step up more consistently on offense for the Knicks while Jalen Brunson (ankle) is on the shelf -- over that 13-game span, Bridges is averaging 13.6 points, 3.8 assists, 3.3 boards, 1.0 threes, 0.9 steals and 0.7 blocks.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Double-double in Friday's loss
Towns provided a team-high 23 points (8-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Friday's 105-95 loss to the Clippers.
The veteran center has delivered a double-double in three straight appearances to begin the month of March. Towns' 46 on the season put him third in the NBA behind Domantas Sabonis (50) and Nikola Jokic (49). Towns has an active streak of 13 straight games with at least one three-pointer, and during that stretch, he's averaging 22.8 points, 12.0 rebounds, 2.2 threes, 2.1 assists and 1.0 steals.

Knicks' Josh Hart: Massive night on glass
Hart registered 14 points (6-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 20 rebounds and six assists across 46 minutes during Friday's 105-95 loss to the Clippers.
The 20 boards were a career high for the 30-year-old, who had pulled down 19 on three different occasions. Hart's double-double was his 28th of the season, and he continues to see a huge workload -- he's played 40-plus minutes in seven of 13 appearances since the beginning of February, averaging 16.3 points, 10.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.2 steals in 39.5 minutes a contest over that stretch while shooting 51.6 percent from the floor.

Knicks' Precious Achiuwa: Will play Friday
Achiuwa (hamstring) will be in the starting lineup for the Knicks on Friday, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Achiuwa has missed two of the Knicks' last three games but is slated to return Friday to face the Clippers. The 25-year-old big man will have to help shoulder the load in the paint with Mitchell Robinson (ankle) ruled out for this game in Los Angeles.

Knicks' Miles McBride: Starting vs. Clippers
McBride is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Clippers, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
As expected, McBride gets the start in place of Jalen Brunson (ankle). In his lone start of the season, McBride notched 23 points, six rebounds, three assists, three blocks, three steals and five triples in a win over the Bulls on Feb. 20.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Update on status in two weeks
The Knicks have announced an update on Brunson's (ankle) will be given in two weeks.
In Thursday's loss to the Lakers, Brunson went down with a sprained right ankle. Although it looked like a severe injury in real time, the Knicks superstar might be able to get back on the floor before the end of March. In the meantime, New York could turn to Cameron Payne and Miles McBride to shoulder the load in the backcourt.

Knicks' Precious Achiuwa: Iffy Friday
Achiuwa (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers.
Achiuwa is in jeopardy of missing both halves of the club's back-to-back set due to left hamstring tightness. With Mitchell Robinson (ankle) having been ruled out already, the club may have to rely on its starters in the frontcourt to soak up more playing time, though Anton Watson and MarJon Beauchamp could provide some emergency relief.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Ruled out Friday
Robinson (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Clippers.
Robinson played 13 minutes off the bench for New York on Thursday in the overtime loss to the Lakers, but the Knicks will have to lean on other frontcourt players in the second game of a back-to-back Friday against the Clippers. Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) is likely to get more time on the floor if he's cleared to play.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Ruled out Friday
Brunson (ankle) won't play in Friday's game versus the Clippers.
Despite the negative X-rays on Brunson's right ankle, the star guard will miss Friday's contest and could be sidelined for additional games. In his absence, Cameron Payne and Miles McBride will likely receive increased playing time. Brunson's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Sacramento.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Imaging comes back clean
The Knicks announced Friday that X-rays done on Brunson's right ankle came back negative, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Brunson suffered a sprained right ankle in Thursday's overtime loss to the Lakers, but additional testing appears to confirm that the star guard has avoided a serious injury. Still, Brunson's status for Friday's matchup with the Clippers is uncertain.

Knicks' Miles McBride: Could see larger role
McBride registered zero points (0-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 21 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Despite this scoreless dud, McBride is going to be a potential pickup in fantasy formats with Jalen Brunson spraining his ankle late in this contest. In his only start of the season, McBride racked up 23 points, six rebounds, three assists, three blocks, three steals and five triples. It remains unclear if Brunson will be able to give it a go Friday against the Clippers.

Knicks' Cameron Payne: Plays just 10 minutes
Payne registered three points (1-6 FG, 1-6 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 10 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Jalen Brunson sprained his ankle during the later portions of Thursday's game, making this a situation to monitor. Miles McBride would likely be the next man up for New York if Brunson misses time, but Payne could also step into a larger role for the Knicks. Payne has been productive in limited action this season with 7.0 points, 2.7 assists, 1.4 rebounds and 1.3 three-pointers in 14.2 minutes per contest.

Knicks' Mikal Bridges: Logs three swipes in loss
Bridges accumulated six points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and three steals over 43 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Bridges put up fewer than seven shot attempts for the first time since Jan. 12, finishing with single-digit points for the second time over his last three appearances. While the 28-year-old swingman was fairly quiet on the offensive end, he did rack up the second-highest mark in steals, tying his season high in swipes. Over eight outings since the All-Star break, Bridges has averaged 13.8 points, 4.0 assists and 3.3 rebounds across 35.3 minutes per contest.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Shooting woes in loss Thursday
Towns amassed 12 points (3-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 42 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Towns returned to game action after missing Monday's win over Miami due to personal reasons, recording his 45th double-double through 55 regular-season outings. However, the big man delivered a lackluster performance from the field, and over six appearances since the All-Star break, he has shot 46.0 percent from the floor and only 28.1 percent from beyond the arc. The 29-year-old has averaged 20.2 points, 13.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 three-pointers across 37.7 minutes per contest in that six-game span.

Knicks' Josh Hart: Stuffs stat sheet in defeat
Hart contributed 18 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 10 rebounds, four steals and two assists in 44 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 overtime loss to the Lakers.
Hart struggled from three-point range Thursday, though he still recorded his 29th outing with a double-double or better through 59 regular-season appearances. The 30-year-old forward also tied the game-high mark in steals, racking up multiple swipes for the 25th time on the season. Over six outings since the All-Star break, Hart has averaged 12.2 points, 9.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting 46.6 percent from the field and 21.4 percent from downtown across 38.0 minutes per contest.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Sprains ankle late Thursday
The Knicks believe that Brunson sustained nothing more than a sprained right ankle in overtime of Thursday's 113-109 loss to the Lakers, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.
Brunson was injured on a drive to the basket, when he appeared to twist his ankle and foot after making contact with the Lakers' Austin Reaves. The point guard hit a pair of free-throw attempts after the play, but he checked out of the game for good with 1:20 remaining in the extra period and finished the night with 39 points (13-26 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 12-13 FT), 10 assists and four rebounds in 41 minutes. Brunson will presumably go through further testing before the Knicks provide an update on the severity of his ankle sprain, but even a minor tweak would put the 28-year-old at risk of missing the second leg of a back-to-back set Friday versus the Clippers. If Brunson is unable to play Friday, Miles McBride would likely move into the starting five and take on expanded minutes, while reserve guards Cameron Payne and Landry Shamet could also see heightened roles.
