According to NBA.com, the New York Knicks have won their last three games, demonstrating their remarkable form. After victories over the Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, and Philadelphia 76ers, Jalen Brunson and company are now two games out of third place in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks must defeat the Golden State Warriors to secure a spot among the top three seeds after the regular season. That being said, Julius Randle's availability will be crucial for this. The New York Knicks' season has been marred by injuries thus far. Three key players have been added to the Knicks' injury list ahead of tonight's game against the Stephen Curry-led Warriors, according to NBA.com. As OG Anunobyhas has been deemed "questionable," thus Julius Randle and Mitchell Robinson won't be playing for the Knicks.
During the Knicks vs. Heat game on January 27, Julius Randle suffered a dislocated shoulder. Since then, the star forward has been sidelined, and he won't be able to alter this in time for this crucial match.
Fans will be happy to hear that Randle is making excellent progress and should return well before the postseason, even though he won't be available for tonight's game at the Chase Center. Nevertheless, his absence from the team during this time will probably cast significant doubt on the team's seeding after the regular season.
