Rotowire
Anunoby produced 29 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 7-7 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal across 37 minutes during Thursday's 109-108 loss to Atlanta in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Anunoby stepped up in a big way after being held in check through the first two games of the first round. He scored 12 of his 29 points from beyond the arc while hitting at a clip of 50.0 percent from deep. He also impressed at the charity stripe, where he didn't miss a shot. The 28-year-old continued his strong play on the glass and is averaging 8.3 rebounds per game through his first three appearances of the 2025-26 playoffs.

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Cleared to play Monday
Rotowire
Anunoby (ankle) is available for Monday's Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the Hawks, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
As expected, Anunoby will shed his probable tag due to a left ankle sprain and suit up as the Knicks look to take a 2-0 series lead. In Game 1 on Saturday, the forward totaled 18 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes and shouldn't face any minutes restriction Monday.

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Probable for Game 2
Rotowire
Anunoby (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series against the Hawks.
Anunoby is officially on the injury report with a left ankle sprain, though the designation is likely a carryover from the injury that cost him the regular-season finale. Despite the "probable" tag, there shouldn't be much concern regarding his availability for Game 2 after he logged 38 minutes and looked plenty mobile in Saturday's series opener. The 28-year-old forward was highly effective in that win, providing 18 points and eight rebounds while playing his signature elite defense. Barring an unexpected setback, Anunoby should be back in his usual starting role as the Knicks look to take a 2-0 series lead.

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Efficient vs. Atlanta
Rotowire
Anunoby ended with 18 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes during Saturday's 113-102 victory over Atlanta in Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Anunoby didn't have an eye-popping stat line for Saturday's win, but he was effective on the defensive boards and was efficient with the few shots he took to finish as the Knicks' third-leading scorer behind Jalen Brunson (28 points) and Karl-Anthony Towns (25 points). Anunoby may be known more for his defensive prowess, so it's an added bonus for the Knicks when he can produce on the offensive side of the floor and take some pressure of the shoulders of Brunson and Towns.
Anunoby (ankle) is available for Game 1 against the Hawks on Saturday.
The Knicks submitted a clean injury report ahead of the playoffs and will be at full strength. Anunoby twisted his ankle during Friday's win over the Raptors and proceeded to sit out Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Hornets, but he practiced Friday with no issues.

Rotowire
Anunoby (ankle) went through practice Wednesday, per Jared Schwartz of the New York Post.
Anunoby twisted his ankle during Friday's win over the Raptors and proceeded to sit out Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Hornets. New York's next contest isn't until Saturday's Game 1 matchup versus Atlanta, so Anunoby has plenty of time to recover.

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Won't return Friday
Rotowire
Anunoby has been ruled out for the rest of Friday's game against the Raptors due to a left ankle injury.
Anunoby checked out of the game at the 7:30 mark in the second quarter, and the veteran forward will be sidelined for the rest of Friday's contest. He'll end his night with two points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 15 minutes. It's bad timing given the proximity to the start of the playoffs, and the Knicks should provide an update on Anunoby's health once he undergoes further tests on his ankle. Mohamed Diawara, Jordan Clarkson and Landry Shamet should see more minutes in Anunoby's absence.
Knicks' OG Anunoby: Scores 31 points with seven treys

Anunoby did most of his scoring damage from beyond the arc in Tuesday's loss, finishing as the Knicks' second-leading scorer behind Jalen Brunson (26 points). Anunoby scored 11 of his 17 points in the second quarter, and it was the sixth time this season that he connected on at least five triples in a game (and third time in 11 games since March 6).

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Scores 16 points in win
Rotowire
Anunoby closed with 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 35 minutes during Friday's 93-92 win over the Nets.
Even though Karl-Anthony Towns led the way for the Knicks in this low-scoring affair, Anunoby still found a way to leave his mark and post a solid performance across the board. The veteran forward went through a slump right after the All-Star break, but it's safe to say that's no longer an issue. He's averaging 19.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.5 steals per game while shooting 44.8 percent from three-point range in 11 outings since the beginning of March.

Rotowire
Anunoby recorded 25 points (8-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight rebounds and five assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 101-92 win over Indiana.
Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) didn't suit up Friday, which gave Anunoby the opportunity to step into a larger role offensively. Anunoby missed some time with a toe injury back in February, but he's found a groove since working his way back from the issue. Over his last nine contests, the 28-year-old forward has averaged 20.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.7 steals in 33.3 minutes per game.

Anunoby had a slump right after the All-Star break with three single-digit games in his first four contests, but it's safe to say those issues are no longer a problem. Anunoby has scored at least 22 points in three of his last four games and is making his presence felt in other areas, ultimately averaging 19.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.9 steals per contest since the beginning of March.

He's enjoying a nice run of production off the glass, totaling 21 rebounds over the past three games. He also sizzled by notching his highest scoring total of the season with 34 points against Denver on Friday.

Knicks' OG Anunoby: Stuffs stat sheet in blowout win
Rotowire
Anunoby tallied 34 points (11-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, five assists, four steals and one block across 32 minutes in Friday's 142-103 win over the Nuggets.

The 28-year-old forward reached the 30-point threshold for the first time this season after averaging 13.6 points per game on less-than-impressive shooting splits in his first eight outings following the All-Star break. He contributed across the board, particularly on the defensive end, where he chipped in five combined steals-plus-blocks for a second consecutive contest. He also finished one assist shy of matching his season-best mark.
