NBC SportsJalen Brunson (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Brunson is going to give it a go after getting through his individual pregame workout. With the Knicks playing their second game in as many nights and Miles McBride out, look for Tyler Kolek to play rotation minutes. However, he isn't worth streaming here.

NBC SportsJalen Brunson (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Raptors.

Brunson is a late addition to the Knicks' injury report, a development that, generally speaking, does not bode well for a player's availability. With Miles McBride already out, Tyler Kolek could move into the starting lineup instead of merely rejoining the rotation.

NBC SportsMiles McBride (ankle) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) are out for Wednesday's matchup with the Raptors.

Deuce and Robinson will both get the night off for injury maintenance on their injured left ankles. New York is playing the second leg of a back-to-back set, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned about additional time off for either player. Tyler Kolek and Ariel Hukporti could see additional playing time against Toronto.

NBC SportsMiles McBride, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns will start Thursday's game against the Warriors.

The Knicks don't have Jalen Brunson, as he sprained his right ankle during Wednesday's loss to the Kings. He'll be replaced in the lineup by McBride, who now offers a higher fantasy ceiling than he does as the sixth man. Tyler Kolek's playing time should receive a boost, but Deuce is the streamer to target.

NBC SportsJalen Brunson (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Warriors.

No surprise here, as Brunson rolled his right ankle five minutes into Wednesday's loss to the Kings. Tyler Kolek is the most likely option to move into the starting lineup, but Miles McBride is the superior streaming option.
