"The Knicks will be without OG Anunoby for at least two weeks and likely longer. Anunoby strained his left hamstring early in the first quarter of the Knicks' 140-132 win over Miami Friday night. Coach Mike Brown said he will not join the team on their five-game road trip that opens Monday night in Miami. Anunoby will be re-evaluated again in two weeks."
""Obviously we're going to miss him defensively. He's all over the place," Josh Hart said. "Great one-on-one defender. Amazing in the gaps. He has a good instinct for the ball and how to make plays. Defensively we miss that. And offensively, he's shooting a really good percentage this year in terms of threes and finishing at the rim. It's going to be tough, but it's next man up and we'll find a way.""
OG Anunoby will be sidelined for at least two weeks after straining his left hamstring early Friday in the Knicks' 140-132 win over Miami. He will not join the team's upcoming five-game road trip to begin Monday in Miami and will be re-evaluated in two weeks. Jalen Brunson, who sprained his ankle Wednesday, will travel with the team and is listed day-to-day. Coach Mike Brown emphasized readiness and a next-man-up approach. Anunoby has prior left hamstring trouble from the 2024 Eastern Conference finals, and teammates expect significant defensive and offensive impact without him.
