Needs surgery, out for postseason Bogdanovic will undergo season-ending surgeries on his left foot and left wrist, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bogdanovic was playing through ligament damage in his left wrist but suffered a left foot injury during his first minute in Game 4 and was already ruled out for Game 5. The sharpshooter was traded to the Knicks at the deadline and averaged 10.4 points in 19.1 minutes across his final 29 regular-season appearances. However, Bogdanovic struggled in limited action during the opening-round series against Philadelphia, as he averaged 8.0 points on 29.2 percent shooting in 16.3 minutes over the first three matchups. He has one more year remaining on his current contract.

Impact Bogdanovic has been playing through ligament damage in his left wrist during the opening-round series, but he suffered a left foot contusion in his first stint on the court during New York's Game 4 win and was ruled out for the remainder of the contest. In Bogdanovic's absence, Miles McBride and Precious Achiuwa are candidates for a few extra minutes.

Won't return Sunday Bogdanovic (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers.
Impact Bogdanovic played just one minute before suffering a left foot contusion and didn't record any counting stats. He is also dealing with ligament damage in his left wrist but was expected to play through that injury. Bogdanovic's next chance to suit up will come Tuesday when the series shifts back to New York for Game 5.

Questionable to return Bogdanovic is questionable to return to Sunday's Game 4 against the 76ers due to a left foot contusion, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Impact Bogdanovic played just one minute and didn't record any counting stats before suffering the injury with 11:41 remaining in the second quarter. The sharpshooter has been playing through left wrist ligament damage during the opening-round series, but he hasn't made an impact, averaging only 8.0 points in 16.3 minutes over the first three games.

Heads to locker room Bogdanovic suffered an apparent ankle injury with 11:41 remaining in the second quarter and limped to the locker room, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.
Impact 76ers Nicolas Batum dove after a loose ball and made contact with Bogdanovic's ankle, and the latter remained on the floor for a while before limping straight to the locker room. The sharpshooter has also been playing through left wrist ligament damage. Bogdanovic didn't accumulate any counting stats in his minute of playing time before suffering the injury.

Intends to play with wrist injury Bogdanovic recently underwent an MRI that showed ligament damage in his left wrist but is expected to play through the issue during the postseason, Michael Scotto of USA Today repo...
Impact Bogdanovic's left wrist has been taped throughout the postseason, and he's occasionally mentioned dealing with pain. However, the veteran has not appeared on the Knicks' injury report since the playoffs started, which isn't expected to change moving forward. Bogdanovic has scored in double figures just once through three games against Philadelphia and is shooting only 29.2 percent from the field. Scotto relays that Bogdanovic may need surgery on his wrist this offseason.

Goes missing in Game 3 loss Bogdanovic finished with five points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 13 minutes during Thursday's 125-114 loss to the 76ers in Game 3 of...
Impact Bogdanovic was a non-factor in the loss, playing only 13 minutes. At this point, his playing time is completely reliant on whether his shot is falling, something it was not doing Thursday. New York will look to bounce back Sunday when the two teams face off once again.
APRIL 26 • ROTOWIRE
Good to go against Chicago Bogdanovic (wrist) will play in Tuesday's game versus the Bulls barring a setback in warmups, Stefan Bondy of the New York Post reports.
Impact Bogdanovic has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday despite dealing with a left wrist sprain. The veteran forward is averaging 9.8 points and 1.5 rebounds in 14.9 minutes across his last 10 outings.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
On track for Tuesday Bogdanovic is probable Tuesday versus Chicago while dealing with a left wrist sprain, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bogdanovic is heating up for the Knicks, posting at least 12 points in three of his past four games. He has not exceeded 20 minutes in any contest over that span, likely due to his defensive limitations in coach Tom Thibodeau's rotation, but his offensive firepower has been a welcome addition while OG Anunoby continues shaking off rust following his return from elbow troubles.
APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE
Available for Sunday's matchup Bogdanovic (wrist) is available for Sunday's game against the Bucks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
Impact Bogdanovic was questionable for Sunday's matchup due to a sprained left wrist, but he'll be able to suit up despite the injury. He's played double-digit minutes in each of his last seven appearances, averaging 11.0 points in 15.9 minutes per game.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Listed as questionable Bogdanovic is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucks with a left wrist sprain.
Impact This is a new injury for Bogdanovic, but the questionable tag suggests that he's day-to-day. Bogdanovic has played a minor role recently, averaging 15.1 minutes over his last 10 appearances.
APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE
Efficient night from second unit Bogdanovic recorded 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-5 3Pt), one rebound and two assists in 16 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 145-101 win over Toronto.
Impact The 34-year-old forward didn't need to do too much in the rout, but he took advantage of his opportunities. Bogdanovic is still capable of supplying some instant offense from the second unit, but he's had an inconsistent March, scoring in double digits only five times in 12 games and shooting just 34.0 percent (17-for-50) from three-point range.
MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE
Reaches double figures off bench Bogdanovic accumulated 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt) and one rebound across 18 minutes during Sunday's 79-73 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Bogdanovic led all Knicks bench players in scoring while connecting on a pair of threes over 18 minutes in a low-scoring defeat. Bogdanovic has provided New York with a spark off the bench since being acquired from Detroit, connecting on two or more threes in five of his last 10 games and surpassing the double-digit scoring total in seven of his last 10 contests.
MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE
Falls flat Thursday Bogdanovic chipped in four points (0-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Thursday's 110-99 loss to the Warriors.
Impact Even with OG Anunoby (elbow) and Julius Randle (shoulder) out, Bogdanovic has come off the bench in all seven of his appearances with the Knicks thus far. The sharpshooter has put together a few strong performances as a reserve, including two 20-plus-point outings, but his overall fantasy value has taken a significant hit with his new squad. Bogdanovic averaged 20.2 points and 3.1 threes per game with the Pistons but is averaging just 13.3 points and 2.4 threes with the Knicks.
MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE
Perfect from deep in win Bogdanovic posted 22 points (8-13 FG, 6-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), two rebounds and three steals across 24 minutes during Thursday's 110-96 victory over the 76ers.
Impact Bogdanovic was outstanding from beyond the arc en route to playing a key role as the Knicks cruised to victory over another Eastern Conference contender in the league's return after the All-Star break. Bogdanovic is not going to maintain these levels of efficiency on a long-term basis, but he should remain a reliable fantasy contributor despite his bench role due to his elite scoring ability. He's averaging 16.0 points per game in three outings since joining the Knicks via trade at the deadline.

Available to play Thursday Bogdanovic (calf) will be available for Thursday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Bogdanovic sat out New York's final game heading into the break with a calf issue, but he's had plenty of time to recover and should be slated for his usual minutes. With Bogdanovic back in action, Miles McBride's playing time will likely dry up.

He's made only two appearances for the Knicks since being traded by Detroit ahead of the deadline and averaged 13.0 points and 3.5 rebounds in 28.0 minutes off the bench during those contests.
