After the All-Star break, the New York Knicks defeated the Chicago Bulls, showcasing strong performances from Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson. Despite missing Josh Hart and OG Anunoby, they successfully pushed the game to overtime and clinched victory. The Knicks now prepare for a challenging matchup against the high-performing Cleveland Cavaliers, who have only strengthened their roster recently and maintain an impressive home record. Injury updates indicate uncertainty about Hart and Anunoby's availability for the upcoming game, while Mitchell Robinson is still sidelined.
On Josh Hart, Tom Thibodeau described his knee injury as 'soreness.' Thibodeau said Hart was able to practice in Knicks' first practice after the All Star break but could not participate in their 2nd practice. Hart's official injury is patellofemoral syndrome in the right knee.
The Cavaliers are 45-10 this season, and only improved their roster at the trade deadline. They have now won nine of their last ten games, and are 25-4 at home this season.
