The New York Knicks are preparing for a pivotal playoff game, but injuries are becoming a bigger story than the game itself.

Reports indicate that Anunoby is expected to miss Game Four and potentially more Games due to a left hamstring injury. This setback further depletes the Knicks’ roster, which is already missing key players like Julius Randle and Mitchell Robinson, who are out for the rest of the season.

In Anunoby’s absence, Precious Achiuwa will be starting, tasked with filling the void left by the injured forward. However, the Knicks face an uphill battle as they navigate a series marked by injuries and setbacks, Randle and Robinson, to name a few. Analysts have expressed concerns about the team’s depth and ability to compete effectively against a formidable opponent like the Indiana Pacers. With limited options, the Knicks must rely on other players like Alec Burks to step up and contribute.

The injury situation has left Knicks fans and analysts alike questioning the team’s chances of advancing in the playoffs. Despite their resilience and effort on the court, the absence of critical players presents a significant challenge that may be difficult to overcome. As the series progresses, head coach Tom Thibodeau faces the daunting task of managing his depleted roster and devising effective strategies to keep the Knicks comPetitive. With each Game becoming increasingly crucial, the team’s ability to overcome adversity will be put to the test.
