According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the New York Knicks and head coach Tom Thibodeau are seriously considering the idea of replacing Josh Hart with Mitchell Robinson in the starting lineup.

This would be a shock to everyone due to Thibodeau always being known to run a consistent lineup and never making lineup changes, especially in the postseason.

The main reason why New York seeks change is because of them losing in Game 2 and being down 2-0 to the Indiana Pacers.

By incorporating Robinson into the lineup, this not only gives new life and a spark to the team, but will allow for his size to attribute to better defense, more rebounding opportunities, and overall rim protection.

According to multiple reports, the New York Knicks have discovered that Karl-Anthony Towns not only has a sprain but a bone chip in his right thumb.

His right hand is his shooting hand. There is good news, though: Towns is willing to play through the injury. This injury doesn’t require surgery during or after the season.

Towns missed Wednesday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Jericho Sims started in his absence.

According to ESPN’s Bobby Marks and Shams Charania, the New York Knicks are waiving Landry Shamet after he suffered a dislocated right shoulder.

The 27-year-old agreed to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 9 contract earlier in the offseason; many within the organization expected him to make the roster and have quality minutes. However, this injury has derailed those plans.

New York has three roster spots available; they must sign two players to meet the required 14-player roster.

When Shamet gets healthy, they will consider bringing him back.
