OG ANUNOBY NEWS

Expected to return Tuesday Anunoby (elbow) is expected to return Tuesday in time to face the 76ers, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Charania reported Anunoby to be "close to returning to game action" on Monday, but this provides an even more specific timeline for the forward, who has been sidelined since Jan. 27 with a nagging elbow injury. The potential return of Anunoby would provide a huge defensive boost for a Knicks team hampered by injuries in recent weeks, though it would also hit Precious Achiuwa's fantasy upside. A confirmation of Anunoby's injury status should be given once the Knicks release their official injury report.

Nearing return Shams Charania of The Athletic reported Monday that Anunoby (elbow) is "close" to returning to game action

Impact Anunoby advanced to contact work, including five-on-five scrimmages, last week, so this isn't a major update but does confirm he didn't suffer a setback following his ramp-up period. Despite trending in the right direction, Anunoby may remain out for Tuesday's home matchup against Portland, though the Knicks haven't released their injury report yet. Following that matchup, New York begins a four-game road trip which starts Thursday in Portland and ends March 21 in Denver. When Anunoby returns to game action, he'll presumably have a minutes restriction for at least a few games.

Won't face Philadelphia Anunoby (elbow) won't play Saturday against the 76ers.

Impact The elbow injury that's affecting Anunoby turned out to be more complicated than initially expected, and he is now set to miss an 18th consecutive game. His next chance to play will come against the Sixers on Tuesday, but it wouldn't be surprising if he's forced to miss a few more games on the sidelines.

Officially out Friday Anunoby (elbow) has officially been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Magic.

Impact It was previously reported by Fred Katz of The Athletic that Anunoby has resumed taking part in contact drills and participating in five-on-five scrimmaging. So, it seems like he is getting closer to a return from his roughly six-week absence. However, that return will not happen Friday versus Orlando. The prized forward's next chance to make his return will come Sunday against the 76ers.

Taking contact, playing 5-on-5 Anunoby (elbow) has resumed contact drills and is playing five-on-five, prompting the Knicks to consider him day-to-day, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

Impact New York has yet to release its official injury report ahead of Friday's game. While it seems unlikely Anunoby will play then against the Magic, a return to the court Sunday or Tuesday against the 76ers could be in the cards. He hasn't played since Jan. 27, so fantasy managers should expect the forward to be limited out of the gate. Anunoby's return could result in smaller roles for Precious Achiuwa, Jericho Sims and Josh Hart. However, Julius Randle (shoulder) remains shelved and without an updated timetable, so the aforementioned players should still see increased run compared to their season averages.

Cleared for basketball activities Anunoby (elbow) was cleared for non-contact basketball activities Thursday, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.

Impact Anunoby hasn't played since Jan. 27 after undergoing right elbow surgery. While the 25-year-old forward appears to be progressing well in his recovery, he is still weeks away from seeing any game action.

Slated to begin shooting soon Anunoby (elbow) is going to begin shooting soon and is expected to return to game action over the next 2-3 weeks, Shams Charania reports on FanDuel's Run It Back.

Impact While Julius Randle (shoulder) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) are still planning to return at some point this season, their return timelines remain murky, while Anunoby's is starting to materialize. Charania relays that Anunoby will quickly transition into other basketball-related activities if shooting goes well, so it may not be long until he's back to full practices.

Out at least three more weeks Anunoby underwent surgery to remove a loose bone fragment from his right elbow Thursday and will be re-evaluated in three weeks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Anunoby was slated to miss a sixth consecutive game due to his elbow injury Thursday against Dallas, and he's facing a multi-week recovery timetable following his surgery. However, the procedure is considered to be relatively minor, and the team's medical staff anticipates that he'll resume basketball activities in three weeks. Precious Achiuwa, Bojan Bogdanovic (recently traded) and Josh Hart are candidates to see increased playing time while Anunoby remains sidelined.

Ruled out for Thursday Anunoby (elbow) will remain on the sidelines for Thursday's game versus Dallas.

Impact Thursday will mark Anunoby's sixth straight game on the sidelines, and it's not a great sign that he's getting ruled out a full 24 hours in advance of tip-off. His next chance to play will come Saturday against the Pacers, and for now, he can be considered questionable at best for that one.

Impact Anunoby will now miss five consecutive games, and being ruled out for Tuesday's matchup over 24 hours in advance is not a great sign. While he remains sidelined, Precious Achiuwa will likely continue his run in the starting lineup.

Won't face Lakers Anunoby (elbow) won't play in Saturday's game against the Lakers, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

Impact Anunoby will miss a fourth straight game with inflammation in his right elbow. While he's been sidelined, Josh Hart and Precious Achiuwa have seen more run. Anunoby will have three days to rest before the Knicks take on Memphis at home.
