Sarr underwent surgery to repair a fractured right foot Monday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.

Despite the procedure, Sarr is expected to be ready for the start of the 2026-27 season. The 2024 No. 2 overall pick was limited to 48 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, averaging 16.3 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.0 blocks in 27.2 minutes per game.

Plumlee posted averages of 1.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 8.6 minutes per contest across 20 regular-season appearances (three starts) between the Spurs and Hornets in 2025-26.

Plumlee began the season with the Hornets and saw inconsistent burn before undergoing right groin surgery in late December. The 36-year-old was traded to the Thunder and subsequently waived in February, and the veteran center later joined the Spurs on a 10-day deal before signing a rest-of-season contract with the club. Plumlee appeared in just six regular-season games for San Antonio and is now slated to enter unrestricted free agency.

Biyombo finished the 2025-26 regular season with averages of 0.9 points and 1.0 rebounds in 5.6 minutes per contest over 25 outings (one start).

Biyombo averaged single-digit minutes for the first time in his career, providing depth in a crowded center room. The veteran big man has spent the last two seasons in San Antonio and is set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Kornet recorded zero points (0-1 FG) and two rebounds in 10 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Kornet saw increased burn in Game 5, though he failed to make much of an impact. The big man appeared in 68 regular-season games (25 starts) during his first season with the Spurs, averaging 6.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 blocks in 21.0 minutes per showing. The 30-year-old shot 64.3 percent from the field and has topped the 60.0 percent mark in each of the last four seasons.

Hukporti totaled one rebound, one assist and one block across two minutes during Saturday's 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Hukporti saw the floor for a second consecutive contest and ended the 2026 postseason averaging 1.7 points and 3.2 rebounds in 7.5 minutes per tilt across 10 appearances. The 24-year-old big man is set to be a restricted free agent this offseason after playing a limited role in his second campaign. Across 54 regular-season appearances (five starts), Hukporti averaged 2.2 points and 2.9 rebounds in 9.2 minutes per showing.

Robinson closed Saturday's 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals with two points (1-2 FG, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes.

Robinson's traditional box score numbers will not jump off the page, and his offensive limitations remained a glaring issue as he finished the championship series averaging just 3.6 points while shooting an abysmal 26.7 percent from the free-throw line. However, the 28-year-old center completely changed the complexion of Game 5 with his high-motor activity on the glass, pulling down 10 boards in just 20 minutes off the bench.None were more impactful than his final offensive rebound of the season. With the Knicks holding a slim lead and just 25 seconds remaining on the clock, Josh Hart missed a crucial free throw. Robinson immediately out-muscled the San Antonio frontcourt to snatch the live ball, resetting the possession and forcing the Spurs to foul again, effectively wrapping up the title for New York. Robinson closed a gritty postseason run averaging 5.6 rebounds (3.0 offensive) and 0.6 blocks in 13.4 minutes per game across the Finals, solidifying his role as the team's ultimate dirty-work specialist.

Olynyk finished the 2025-26 season with averages of 3.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 8.8 minutes per tilt in 41 regular-season games.

Olynyk didn't see the floor in the final six games of the postseason, bringing an end to a quiet campaign for the veteran center. The 35-year-old logged double-digit minutes in just 17 of his regular-season appearances, closing with several career-worst averages. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer after being traded twice last offseason.

Diawara appeared in 69 regular-season games (seven starts) in 2025-26, averaging 3.6 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.8 assists across 9.2 minutes per contest.

Diawara finished the season with a DNP-CD in all five games of the NBA Finals, and he appeared in only six games during the playoffs. The 21-year-old forward saw brief stretches of increased playing time, especially when Miles McBride missed 27 consecutive contests from Jan. 28 to March 26 due to sports hernia surgery. During that span, Diawara averaged 5.9 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists while shooting 40.5 percent from deep in 14.2 minutes per game.

Barnes finished the 2025-26 campaign with averages of 10.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 25.8 minute per game across 77 regular-season appearances (52 starts).

Barnes didn't see the floor in any of the final three games of the Finals after logging 17 total minutes in the first two outings of the series. The veteran forward was a regular in the starting lineup to begin the regular season but started only three games after the All-Star break. The 34-year-old is set to enter unrestricted free agency this offseason.

Thunder general manager Sam Presti recently said that Sorber (knee) is unlikely to play in the Summer League, Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman reports.

Sorber sustained a torn ACL in his right knee back in September, and while his recovery remains on track, the Thunder will proceed with caution. "Thomas has really impressed me," Presti said. "We have some experience with some of our younger guys not being able to play in games in their rookie year. He dove into his rehab. His work capacity has impressed me. And, obviously, there are all of the reasons we drafted him. Great feel for the game. He can really pass. He's physical. He'll hit the ground running. We're really excited about him."

Williams totaled 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds and four assists over 26 minutes during Saturday's 111-103 loss to San Antonio in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.

Williams served an expanded role during the Western Conference Finals, due in part to the absence of Jalen Williams (hamstring) and to fill in for a struggling Chet Holmgren. Williams recorded his first double-double of the postseason in Saturday's loss and was the only Thunder player to finish the game with a positive point differential (plus-10). He finished the Western Conference Finals having averaged 6.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.4 threes over 19.1 minutes per game. Williams should operate as the Thunder's backup center behind Isaiah Hartenstein for the 2026-27 season.

Holmgren logged four points (1-2 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and two steals over 33 minutes during the Thunder' 111-103 loss to the Spurs in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.

The Thunder desperately needed another contributor alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the absence of Jalen Williams (hamstring). While he contributed defensively, Holmgren was unable to meet the moment offensively when it mattered most, failing to attempt a shot in the entire second half while missing half of his limited free-throw attempts. It was an incredibly disappointing end to the 2025-26 season for Holmgren, who finished the Western Conference Finals having averaged 10.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 blocks over 29.8 minutes per game.

Waters averaged 2.4 points, 0.7 rebounds and 0.5 assists across 7.1 minutes per tilt in 40 regular-season games during the 2025-26 campaign.

Waters didn't play in any of San Antonio's last six postseason games or log more than eight minutes in any of his nine playoff appearances. The 28-year-old swingman logged double-digit minutes in just 10 of his regular-season outings and averaged a career-low mark in minutes. He's slated to be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Dadiet appeared in 29 regular-season games in 2025-26, averaging 1.7 points and 0.9 rebounds while shooting 33.3 percent from the field in 4.7 minutes per showing.

While Dadiet appeared in 11 more games than he did as a rookie, he averaged fewer minutes per game and scored in double figures just twice. However, the 20-year-old swingman took a step forward in the G League compared to 2024-25. Over 19 appearances with the Westchester Knicks this season, he averaged 22.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals across 34.6 minutes per contest.

Bryant chipped in two rebounds in six minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Bryant logged single-digit minutes for a ninth consecutive contest, going scoreless for the third time during that span. The rookie first-rounder took on an increased role in the latter half of the 2025-26 campaign, averaging 6.1 points and 3.4 rebounds while shooting 37.3 percent from downtown in 15.3 minutes per game across the final 34 games of the regular season. He finished the regular season with averages of 4.2 points and 2.5 rebounds in 11.5 minutes per contest over 71 outings.

Champagnie ended Saturday's 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals with 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-8 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 31 minutes.

Champagnie delivered a bounce-back performance Saturday after scoring just five points on 2-of-9 shooting in Game 4. The 24-year-old forward was a valuable contributor for the Spurs in their run to the Finals, averaging 11.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.3 steals while shooting 39.6 percent from deep across 30.6 minutes per tilt in 23 playoff appearances. Champagnie is fresh off a career-best year, and the Spurs hold a team option on his contract for 2026-27. Across 82 regular-season appearances (68 starts) in 2025-26, he averaged 11.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.8 steals while shooting 38.1 percent from downtown in 27.6 minutes per game.

Johnson ended with seven points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds in 16 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to New York in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Johnson concluded a highly disappointing postseason run with a slightly improved but ultimately quiet performance off the bench as San Antonio was eliminated in five games. Despite earning the 2025-26 Sixth Man of the Year award after averaging 13.2 points per game during the regular season, the seventh-year swingman was never able to find his rhythm in the playoffs, frequently taking a back seat in the rotation. His struggles reached a low point in the championship series against New York, where he averaged just 4.4 points and 3.0 rebounds across 15.0 minutes per game while shooting a meager 34.8 percent from the field. Johnson has one year remaining on his four-year, $74 million rookie extension before hitting unrestricted free agency in the summer of 2027. Owed an average annual salary of $18.5 million on a fully guaranteed deal, he will head into the offseason looking to regroup and solidify his standing as a vital, high-priced reserve weapon for a young Spurs core built around Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper.

Sochan logged eight seconds of playing time during Saturday's 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Sochan barely touched the hardwood in the final series, playing three first-half minutes in Game 4 and entering Game 5 just to watch the final clock tick down, but he walks away with a championship ring. The defensive specialist found a unique way to make his presence felt during the series, frequently seen taunting and chirping at Victor Wembanyama, his former teammate in San Antonio. It caps off a wild rollercoaster of a season for the 2022 first-round draft pick, who was waived by the Spurs in February before signing a one-year deal with the Knicks. While Sochan was completely non-existent in New York's standard rotation, his athletic traits and defensive versatility should still generate interest on the open market this summer. He will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent looking to find a franchise willing to give him consistent developmental minutes.

Vassell produced 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 39 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to New York in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Vassell turned in an efficient performance in Saturday's season-ending loss and finished as San Antonio's fourth-leading scorer. The 25-year-old swingman also supplied at least three combined steals-plus-blocks for the ninth time across 23 playoff appearances. Vassell started 65 of his 67 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, averaging 13.9 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.9 steals across 30.5 minutes per showing.

Bridges closed with 14 points (5-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block over 39 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 victory over San Antonio in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

After combining for only nine points in Games 3 and 4, Bridges had 14 points Saturday -- his second-highest output of the NBA Finals -- to help the Knicks capture an NBA championship for the first time in 53 years. The 2018 No. 10 overall pick had a down year offensively in 2025-26, averaging 14.4 points over 82 regular-season games, 3.2 less than he had during the 2024-25 campaign. Still, Bridges' durability and contributions on both ends of the floor made him a valuable component of New York's championship run despite the scoring decline.

Shamet re-entered Saturday's 94-90 win over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals with 26 seconds remaining after exiting the contest with 7:54 left in the fourth quarter due to an apparent leg injury.

Shamet was hobbled after a hard fall to the court and made a trip to the locker room to be evaluated, but he returned to the New York bench shortly thereafter and was able to get back on the court for two brief shifts at the end of the game. The veteran guard finished Saturday's contest with five points (2-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and one rebound in 13 minutes. Overall, Shamet averaged 6.0 points, 1.5 three-pointers, 1.1 rebounds and 0.7 assists while shooting 45.3 percent from the field and 47.5 percent from downtown in 16.3 minutes per game while playing in all 19 of the Knicks' playoff games.

Shamet exited in the fourth quarter Saturday of Game 5 of the Knicks' NBA Finals matchup with the Spurs due to an apparent leg injury, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

After landing awkwardly on the court, Shamet checked out of the game with 7:54 remaining in the fourth quarter and made a brief visit to the locker room. Though he's back on the New York bench, it's unclear if Shamet will be available for the waning minutes of Game 5.

Vassell contributed 14 points (4-9 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and one block in 38 minutes during Friday's 105-104 loss to New York in Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

Vassell continues to play well on both ends of the floor, providing solid yet modest production. In 14 playoff appearances over the past month, he has averaged 12.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.5 three-pointers. Having lost both games at home, San Antonio will now head to New York for Games 3 and 4 looking to extend the series beyond four games.

Shamet recorded 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one block in 30 minutes during Friday's 105-104 win over the Spurs in Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

Shamet landed at least three triples for the sixth time in the past seven games, continuing to provide the Knicks with a viable scoring option off the bench. He has now also played at least 28 minutes in three of the past four games, scoring at least 13 points in all four appearances. Now leading the series 2-0, New York will have the opportunity to wrap up the NBA Finals with back-to-back wins on its home court.

McLaughlin averaged 2.0 points, 0.9 assists and 0.7 rebounds across 6.4 minutes per tilt in 44 regular-season appearances during the 2025-26 season.

McLaughlin averaged several career lows in his first full season with San Antonio. The 30-year-old point guard logged double-digit minutes in just 12 of his regular-season outings and is now set to enter unrestricted free agency this offseason.

Kolek finished the 2025-26 campaign with averages of 4.4 points, 2.7 assists and 1.6 rebounds in 11.7 minutes per contest across 62 regular-season appearances (one start).

Kolek didn't see the floor during the Finals and logged double-digit minutes just three times during the postseason. The 25-year-old point guard took on an increased role in his second season but lost consistent playing time after Jose Alvarado was traded to New York. Kolek is under contract for next season, and the Knicks hold a team option on his contract for 2027-28.

McBride notched zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one assist in 13 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 win over San Antonio in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

McBride logged 13 minutes Saturday night, his highest workload since Game 2. Still, the 25-year-old didn't do much with the bump in playing time and went scoreless for a third straight contest. McBride logged 41 regular-season appearances during the 2025-26 campaign, averaging a career-best 12.0 points with 2.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.2 blocks and 0.9 steals. He also shot 41.3 percent from deep, another career high. However, despite the increase in production, McBride struggled to stay healthy, missing time mostly due to a core-muscle injury that kept him off the court for a stretch of the season. All things considered, the 2021 No. 36 overall pick will be entering the final year of his contract before becoming an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2027. If McBride can stay healthy and improve his statistical contributions even slightly, it may be difficult for the Knicks to retain him at a discount beyond the 2026-27 season.

Clarkson supplied two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one rebound over six minutes during Saturday's 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Clarkson saw limited action in the championship-clinching victory, missing both of his attempts from beyond the arc while filling a depth role off the bench. The veteran guard was used sparingly throughout the series against San Antonio, appearing in four of the five contests and averaging 3.5 points across 7.5 minutes per game while shooting 37.5 percent from the field. The quiet postseason run caps off an underwhelming 2025-26 campaign for Clarkson, who served primarily as an emergency depth piece rather than a staple of New York's standard rotation. After joining the Knicks last July on a one-year, veteran minimum contract following a buyout with Utah, the 34-year-old is now set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Coming off a passive season where he struggled to command consistent minutes, the former Sixth Man of the Year will likely have to look for another bench-depth role with a contender on the open market.

Alvarado provided zero points (0-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one rebound over 11 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 victory over the Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Alvarado struggled to find his stroke in the championship-clinching victory while missing all five of his field-goal attempts, but he walked away with a title ring nonetheless. The energetic backup guard operated as a minor piece of the Knicks' second-unit rotation throughout the series, averaging 4.2 points and a quiet 0.2 steals across 12.0 minutes per game in the five matchups against San Antonio. After coming over from the Pelicans at the trade deadline, Alvarado spent the final months of the season in and out of head coach Mike Brown's rotation depending on the health of Jalen Brunson. Under contract for the 2026-27 season on a team-friendly deal, the 28-year-old will head into the summer slated to resume his role as New York's primary spark-plug defender off the bench.

Fox closed with seven points (3-15 FG, 1-8 3Pt), five assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Saturday's 94-90 loss to the Knicks in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

Fox wrapped up a brutal championship series with another dreadful shooting display, failing to crack 37.5 percent shooting from the field for a third straight game as San Antonio was eliminated. The 28-year-old guard was never able to recapture his pre-injury form after returning from a Western Conference Finals high-ankle sprain, averaging a meager 12.8 points while shooting 34.4 percent from the field and 25.0 percent from deep across the five Finals contests. Beyond the efficiency woes, Fox's decision-making plagued the Spurs at the worst possible moments and most notably in Game 4, when he inexplicably drove into a contested layup attempt instead of running out the clock and forcing New York to foul while up one with 12 seconds remaining. With San Antonio heading into the offseason, management will have to weigh whether Fox can adjust his game alongside rising stars Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper, or if his maximum contract will continue to clog the team's flexibility.
