Remains out for Wednesday McBride (knee) will remain out for Wednesday's game against Phoenix.

Impact McBride will now miss four consecutive games, which is starting to become a little concerning for the Knicks because prior to his absence, he was a key contributor among the bench unit, averaging 10.7 points, 2.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 0.3 blocks over 26.3 minutes. After getting over an illness, McBride sustained inflammation in his left knee that will continue to keep him out through at least Wednesday night. His next opportunity to suit up will be Saturday against the Jazz.

Impact McBride missed Friday's game against the Nets due to an illness, and it's unclear if he'll be available for the rematch.

Impact The questionable tag suggests a decision on McBride's status will be made closer to Friday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff. With Cameron Payne (hamstring) and Jalen Brunson (ankle) also on the injury report, the Knicks can't afford to be without one of their best second-unit players. McBride is averaging 10.7 points, 2.5 assists and 2.3 rebounds per game this season.

NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Wednesday McBride (knee) will play Wednesday versus Chicago, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

Impact McBride is joined by fellow guards Jalen Brunson (ankle) and Cameron Payne (hamstring) in gaining clearance for Wednesday's contest. McBride has logged between 25-29 minutes in each of his last eight games, although Brunson being hobbled could lead to a larger workload.

NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Wednesday McBride is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to left knee inflammation, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

Impact McBride continues to manage a knee issue but hasn't missed a game yet this season. He posted 15 points (6-12 FG), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 26 minutes during Tuesday's win over Philadelphia, showing no signs of an injury. Jalen Brunson (ankle) and Cameron Payne (hamstring) are also questionable for the second night of New York's back-to-back set, so the Knicks' backcourt depth could be in serious jeopardy versus Chicago.

NOVEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Tuesday McBride (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the 76ers, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

Impact McBride is dealing with left knee inflammation, though he will play through it and seemingly shoulder his normal workload off the bench in the club's first NBA Cup matchup. The 24-year-old has been the Knicks' top option off the bench through nine regular-season outings, during which he has averaged 11.2 points, 2.7 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals while shooting 44.0 percent across 26.8 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with knee inflammation McBride is questionable for Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to left knee inflammation.

Impact McBride shook off an illness and played Sunday, posting seven points, one rebound, one assist and two steals in 29 minutes off the bench during a loss to Indiana. However, he's now dealing with a knee injury and could be sidelined for the first half of a back-to-back set. Cameron Payne (hamstring) is also questionable, and if both backup guards are sidelined, rookie Tyler Kolek would likely be the next man up.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Will be available Sunday McBride (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Pacers, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

Impact As expected, McBride will attempt to play through an illness. He's scored in double figures in six of eight appearances, averaging 11.8 points, 2.9 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 26.4 minutes per game.

NOVEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up Sunday McBride (illness) is officially listed as questionable, but he's warming up with the intention of playing Sunday against the Pacers, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

Impact Despite coming off the bench, McBride has averaged 26.5 minutes per game, so his potential absence would've been a huge blow, especially with Cameron Payne (hamstring) still out. It appears McBride will try to play through the illness, but his effectiveness could take a hit.

NOVEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable due to illness McBride is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers due to an illness.

Impact Not having McBride available off the bench would be a serious problem for the Knicks, as he can fill both positions in the backcourt while being a reliable scorer in the second unit. McBride has scored in double digits in six of his eight outings this season. If he's unavailable to suit up Sunday, then Tyler Kolek, Matt Ryan and Pacome Diadet could be in line for more minutes off the bench.

Strong effort off bench McBride logged 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes during Friday's 116-94 win over the Bucks.

Impact McBride has made multiple three-pointers in seven of his first eight appearances, and his five rebounds Friday set a new season-high mark for the backup point guard. Despite operating off the bench, McBride has played at least 20 minutes in all eight games, including 25-plus minutes in six straight.

NOVEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Bounces back Wednesday McBride chipped in 16 points (5-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 121-116 loss to the Hawks.

Impact McBride was coming off a scoreless appearance in 26 minutes (0-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt) in the loss to the Rockets on Monday, but he bounced back admirably in this one and delivered his second-best scoring mark of the season. The inconsistencies on a game-to-game basis might hurt McBride's upside, as well as his role as a bench option, given Tom Thibodeau's tendency to give heavy minutes to the starters. However, McBride is making the most of his chances, and he's scored in double digits in five of his seven contests thus far while averaging 26.1 minutes per game. That should give him decent upside in most formats.

NOVEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Shooting woes in defeat McBride ended Monday's 109-97 loss to Houston with zero points (0-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two assists, one block and two steals across 26 minutes.

Impact After three consecutive games reaching double figures, McBride went cold from the field while negatively impacting the game as the Knicks' bench combined for only three points. The 24-year-old has served as the primary option off the bench thus far, though he has struggled from the field in the club's last three games while shooting 24.1 percent.

NOVEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Available Monday McBride (knee) is available for Monday's game against Cleveland.

Impact McBride hyperextended his knee during Friday's win over the Pacers, though he will return Monday without missing any time. The 24-year-old has been incredible off the bench thus far, accumulating 30 points, four assists and two rebounds while shooting 78.6 percent from the field across 47 total minutes in two regular-season appearances.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play Monday McBride (knee) is expected to play against the Cavaliers on Monday, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

Impact McBride suffered a knee injury Friday against the Pacers. He was listed as probable for Monday's contest, and unless he suffers a setback, he should be the Knicks' first guard off the bench behind starters Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges and OG Anunoby.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Should play despite knee injury McBride is probable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers due to a left knee hyperextension.

Impact McBride left Friday's win over Indiana after suffering an undisclosed injury, but it's unclear if the two issues are related. Either way, it sounds like McBride will play through the injury, and he may even make his first start of the season if Josh Hart (ankle) can't suit up. McBride posted 22 points (8-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt) during the Knicks' season-opening loss to Boston.

OCTOBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to return McBride (undisclosed) has returned from the locker room and is available to return to Friday's game against Indiana, Cassidy Hubbarth of ESPN reports.

Big night off bench Tuesday McBride logged 22 points (8-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and two assists over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 132-109 loss to Boston.

Impact The 24-year-old guard tied Jalen Brunson for the team lead in scoring on the night, and McBride also led the Knicks in made threes. He's coming off something of a breakout 2023-24 campaign in which he averaged career highs with 8.3 points and 1.6 threes in 19.5 minutes a game during the regular season while shooting 41.0 percent from beyond the arc, but McBride figures to have an even bigger role this season as one of the key cogs on the Knicks' second unit following the departure of Donte DiVincenzo.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go for Opening Night McBride (rest) is not listed on the injury report for the Knicks' regular-season opener against the Celtics on Tuesday.

Impact McBride sat out for the Knicks' preseason finale against the Wizards on Friday, but he will suit up for Tuesday's contest. The 2021 second-round pick took on a larger role off the bench for the Knicks last season, and after the All-Star break he averaged 12.1 points on 46.7 percent shooting, 2.8 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 31.0 minutes per game across 26 regular-season outings. McBride and Cameron Payne will likely be the first guards off the bench for the Knicks this season behind starters Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges.
