The New York Knicks have been without a backup center for the entirety of the 2024-25 so far. That’s 54 games without sufficient depth at a key position. And while Karl-Anthony Towns has played more than valiantly (and made a decent case for first team All-NBA),

Mitchell Robinson practiced fully with the Knicks for the first time this season. Robinson has not played or practiced fully with the team since injuring his ankle in the first round of the playoffs last season. Also practicing fully with the Knicks was OG Anunoby. He missed the final five games before the All-Star break with a right foot sprain.

Miles McBride (hamstring) is also a game-time decision, potentially leaving New York's already thin bench even more shorthanded. The Knicks recalled big man Ariel Hukporti from the G League Westchester Knicks earlier on Monday to bolster the front court options.
