Overview

  • Miles McBride will sit the second night of the back‑to‑back in Memphis on Wednesday for pelvic and core injury management.
  • The guard returned Saturday in Oklahoma City after sports hernia surgery in early February and has 3 points on 1‑of‑12 shooting across two games.
  • He said the pain that sent him to the locker room Saturday came from scar tissue breaking down, not a new injury, and he played 13 minutes Tuesday without a setback.
  • New York’s 111–94 loss in Houston on Tuesday pushed the skid to three games, with Mitchell Robinson also ruled out for ankle management and Jalen Brunson listed as questionable.
  • Landry Shamet is cleared to return Wednesday, giving the backcourt a needed body as the Knicks try to protect the No. 3 seed with a one‑game lead on Cleveland.
