WE BACK
OG Anunoby is listed as questionable for Knicks game vs. Bulls tonight, per the NBA injury report. Anunoby has missed past nine games due to elbow ailment. Tom Thibodeau said yesterday NYK was cautiously optimistic about Anunoby. This is a big step toward Anunoby's return.

This is huge Thibs needs to settle in on playoff rotations and having OG back helps that
In Knicks language Questionable means 100% playing.
Injured means Dead.
Genuinely shocked to see this, I thought for sure he’d still be out the next 2-3 games. Encouraging news even if he doesn’t end up playing tonight.
Allllrighty. Let’s see how we look!
An OG return would be amazing for the vibes. Might even start a win streak 👀
aight
Well, that’s something. Will never know, but after the news of Randle not being able to come back – I’m sure Brunson and Hart (the 2 undisputed leaders of this team) talked to OG and said “so……you in?”
Even without Randle – this team becomes much harder to play against with OG.
Didn’t they just clear him for contact?
This is big news. It’s very unlikely he’d come back early just for seeding purposes. To me, this indicates there’s real optimism regarding the inflammation in his elbow, and he may just be good to go for the rest of the season. If Mitch can get into better game shape these next few weeks and OG is fully healthy, this team will be in great shape.
A win against the Bulls tonight would be nice, but a win against the Bucks on Sunday night will blow the standings wide fucking open.
We need him.
GET THE METAL BATS BACK OUT BOYS
Trying to tell myself this means nothing so I can’t be disappointed but it’s not really working
I’m ready to be hurt again
Keep that mother fucker in bubble wrap and on ice until the playoffs.
This could not come at a better time. Hart is too short to guard DeRozan, OG had him in jail last time we played.
Om his type of injury contact is probably less of a factor than it is for Randle injury. I’d be surprised if he plays tonight but not at all surprised if he starts on Sunday night to D up Middleton
Nice af
Gang
need this on a back to back, wonder if this was the target for a while
Original gangster
Big if true
Ok we see you OG
If OG comes back I actually feel good about our chances of making a run. Brunson has been playing SO well. He just has that extra gear that can compensate for Jules being down. It’s crazy.
Current vibes
I know he got his elbow thing but just having him play defense and stand in the corner (even if he doesn’t shoot) should help us a lot.
AHHHHHHHHHH
Has he been practicing with contact? I genuinely don’t understand the point of secrecy with injuries, in any sport.
I really hope OG plays on Tuesday when I’m going.
Ohhhhh can I please see some minutes of Mitch and OG
He needs in-game repa to test that elbow. Put him in on a minutes restriction to see what we got with him.
He’s definitely playing tonight
