OG Anunoby's Injury Status for Warriors vs. Knicks Revealed
The New York Knicks are taking on the Golden State Warriors on Monday night, but they will not have versatile wing OG Anunoby. New York has released their injury report for this game, and Anunoby has been ruled out due to right elbow injury management.
This is a big game for both teams, as Golden State and New York are both in seeding battles in their respective conferences. For the Knicks, they enter this game as the 4th seed in the Eastern Conference, two games back of the 3rd seed Cleveland Cavaliers, and just a half game up on the 5th seed Orlando Magic.
For Golden State, the enter this game just percentage points ahead of the 10th seed Los Angeles Lakers, and three games back of the 7th and 8th seed Dallas Mavericks and Phoenix Suns.
The likeliest scenario is that Golden State finishes 9th or 10th, but they are desperately trying to run down the 7th or 8th seed in order to give themselves two games to win one in the play-in tournament.
New York is in a much more secure spot than Golden State right now, but they also want to optimize their seeding and path to a deep playoff run. This should be a fun game between two teams that have a lot to play for right now.
