Injury Report: Golden State Warriors vs New York Knicks /

The Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks face off in a game that's pivotal for both team's playoff hopes - but for entirely different reasons.

The Warriors have zero injuries to report against the New York Knicks. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green are all listed to play. Fresh off a massive win against the Lakers on Saturday night, the Warriors should have some momentum on their side.

The New York Knicks have three players listed on their injury report: OG Anunoby, Julius Randle, and Mitchell Robinson. OG Anunoby is out due to right elbow management; Knicks fans were hoping to have Anunoby return to the lineup soon. Julius Randle is out due to a dislocated right shoulder. Mitchell Robinson is out due to left ankle surgery. Jalen Brunson is listed as available against the Golden State Warriors.

For the Warriors, a win tonight would put them only 2.5 games behind the Phoenix Suns, Dallas Mavericks, and Sacramento Kings for the 6th, 7th, and 8th seed. A loss tonight though would put them half a game behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the 10th seed. Every single win and loss is a massive game-changer in terms of being in or out of the play-in tournament.

For the Knicks, a win would put them only 1.5 games behind the Cleveland Cavaliers for the 3rd seed. A loss would put them tied with the Orlando Magic for the 5th seed. While the Knicks aren't in as much of a do-or-die situation, they clearly need a win to secure a comfortable playoff spot.

The Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks face off at 10:00 p.m. EST tonight.
