Knicks' Josh Hart: Fills box score in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Hart recorded 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-5 FT), 13 rebounds, seven assists and one block over 37 minutes during the Knicks' 112-109 win over the 76ers on Saturday.
Karl-Anthony Towns was limited to just 16 minutes while battling through foul trouble, so Hart and Mitchell Robinson stepped up on the boards and were responsible for 11 of the Knicks' 19 offensive rebounds during Saturday's win. It was Hart's ninth double-double of the season and first since Dec. 23 against the Timberwolves. He has averaged 10.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.5 threes over 31.5 minutes per game over his last six outings.

Rotowire
Anunoby finished Saturday's 112-109 win over the 76ers with 23 points (10-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals over 36 minutes.
Anunoby scored 10 of his 23 points in the second quarter and finished as the Knicks' second-leading scorer behind Jalen Brunson (31 points). Anunoby has scored 20-plus points in five of his last nine outings, and over that span he has averaged 17.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.4 threes and 1.2 steals over 33.9 minutes per game while connecting on 50.5 percent of his field-goal attempts.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Drops 31 points in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Brunson tallied 31 points (11-24 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six assists and five rebounds over 38 minutes during the Knicks' 112-109 win over the 76ers on Saturday.
Brunson was particularly effective from three-point range during Saturday's win, tying a season high with six three-pointers while leading the Knicks in scoring, though he scored just one point during the fourth quarter. In the three outings since returning from a two-game absence due to a right ankle sprain, Brunson has averaged 24.3 points, 5.7 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 2.7 threes over 34.1 minutes per game.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Available vs. Philly
Rotowire
Towns (back) is available for Saturday's game against the 76ers.
The star big man was a game-time call for this contest, but in the end, he'll suit up and should handle his regular workload. Towns will have his hands full on both ends of the court while dealing with a rejuvenated Joel Embiid. Towns is averaging 17.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game since the beginning of January.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Considered game-time decision
Rotowire
Head coach Mike Brown told reporters that Towns (back) is a game-time decision for Saturday's contest against the 76ers, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Towns will go through pregame warmups, at which point the Knicks will have a better idea of whether the veteran big man will be able to play through back spasms. Mitchell Robinson would likely start for the Knicks if Towns is unable to play.

Knicks' Mohamed Diawara: Knicks recall him
Rotowire
The Knicks recalled Diawara from the G League Westchester Knicks on Friday.
Diawara had a brief stint at the G League level but is back with New York and could be an option in the rotation for Saturday's game against the 76ers. That said, he's not expected to see a big enough role to be an option in most fantasy formats. Diawara is averaging a mere 4.5 minutes per game at the NBA level since the beginning of January.

Knicks' Ariel Hukporti: Recalled by New York
Rotowire
Hukporti was recalled by the Knicks on Friday.
Hukporti had a brief stint with the Westchester Knicks in the G League but already returned to the NBA roster. The big man is averaging 1.6 points and 2.8 boards per game in 29 regular-season appearances for the Knicks in 2025-26.

Knicks' Kevin McCullar: Stuffs stat sheet in G League
Rotowire
McCullar generated 23 points (7-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists, two steals and two blocks in 37 minutes during Friday's 114-104 G League win over the Windy City Bulls.
With the parent club nearly at full strength, McCullar made his first G League appearance since Dec. 22 and led the team in dimes. The 24-year-old has now played seven games with the Westchester Knicks this year, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him continue spending time in the G League as long as New York's backcourt is healthy.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Iffy for Saturday
Rotowire
Towns is questionable for Saturday's game against the 76ers due to thoracic back spasms.
Towns is at risk of missing his first game since Jan. 2. Over his past 10 appearances, the veteran big man is averaging 17.3 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals in 29.8 minutes per contest. If Towns is unable to go Saturday, Mitchell Robinson is likely to step into the starting lineup.
Knicks' Jordan Clarkson: May be headed out of rotation
Rotowire
Clarkson played the final 12 minutes of Wednesday's 120-66 win over the Nets, finishing with three points (1-4 3Pt, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal.
Though Clarkson did a decent job of filling up the box score during his time on the court, the fact that he didn't check into the game until the Knicks had built a 32-point lead at the start of the fourth quarter suggests he likely would have been out of the rotation had Wednesday's contest been more competitive. The garbage-time appearance came just two days after Clarkson had been limited to one two-minute shift at the end of the first quarter during the Knicks' 114-97 loss to the Mavericks before he stayed on the bench for the final three quarters. The recent return of Landry Shamet from an extended absence appears to have made Clarkson somewhat expendable on the Knicks' second unit, and the latter hasn't helped his case for maintaining a regular role by shooting 35.9 percent from the field and 24.3 percent from three-point range since the beginning of January.

Knicks' Miles McBride: Fares well off bench
Rotowire
McBride supplied 14 points (5-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Wednesday's 120-66 win over the Nets.
The Knicks ran away with this contest, allowing the team to utilize 14 different players Wednesday. McBride didn't see a big workload for that reason, but he still put on a show in limited run. Over his last seven appearances, McBride has produced averages of 14.6 points, 4.0 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 3.1 three-pointers.

Knicks' Ariel Hukporti: Gets garbage-time run in blowout
Rotowire
Hukporti recorded two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds and one block in 11 minutes Wednesday in the Knicks' 120-66 win over the Nets.
Recalled from the G League's Westchester Knicks prior to Wednesday's contest, Hukporti was outside of head coach Mike Brown's rotation but took the floor for all but one minute of the fourth quarter after New York had built a 32-point lead heading into the final period. Since playing time at the NBA level has been relatively scarce of late for the second-year center, he could rejoin Westchester ahead of Friday's home game against the Windy City Bulls to pick up some extended minutes.

Knicks' Mohamed Diawara: Logs garbage-time run in blowout
Rotowire
Diawara played the final 7:47 of Wednesday's 120-66 win over the Nets, finishing with seven points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist.
Recalled from the G League's Westchester Knicks prior to Wednesday's contest, Diawara was able to get in some run during garbage time while New York emptied the bench in a franchise-record 54-point victory. The rookie forward could rejoin Westchester ahead of its next game Friday at home versus the Windy City Bulls.

Knicks' Pacome Dadiet: Plays garbage time of blowout win

Dadiet played the final 6:39 of Wednesday's 120-66 win over the Nets, finishing with one assist and no other statistics.

Knicks' Landry Shamet: Goes 6-for-6 from deep
Rotowire
Shamet supplied 18 points (6-7 FG, 6-6 3Pt), one rebound, two assists, one block and two steals in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 120-66 victory over the Nets.
Shamet appeared to shake off all signs of rust in New York's rout against Brooklyn. The Knicks reserve played in his fourth game after a nearly two-month absence due to shoulder sprain and scored more than in his three prior contests combined Wednesday night. Shamet's shooting is one way for him to earn playing time in a deep New York backcourt.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Scores 14 in 20 minutes
Rotowire
Towns posted 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 120-66 win over Brooklyn.
Towns saw a season-low 20 minutes of action as the Knicks nearly lapped Brooklyn in scoring on the night. While he was on the court he was productive, nearly generating a double-double with 14 points and eight rebounds. Towns sank multiple threes for a fourth game in a row, and he'll look to stay hot as the team has a few days off before playing the 76ers on Saturday.
Brunson generated 20 points (8-17 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 31 minutes of Wednesday's 120-66 win over Brooklyn.
The Knicks dominated Wednesday's game, allowing head coach Mike Brown to go deep into the bench and limit the minutes of his starters. Brunson's 31 minutes were a team high, but it was also tied for his third-fewest minutes in a game that he didn't get injured in. Brunson has now played two games since a brief absence due to an ankle injury, and he's averaging 21.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 5.5 assists while shooting 41.5 percent from the field and 16.7 percent from three-point land.
