Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) is currently considered questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Achiuwa is in danger of sitting out for the second time over the last three games. The assumption is that it's a minor hamstring issue, but possibly Achiuwa re-aggravated the issue during Tuesday's game.
Mitchell Robinson (ankle) would likely pick up the slack if Achiuwa is unable to go, but he's also questionable for this contest. The Knicks might be forced to play small-ball if both players are unable to play.

New York Knicks forward
Precious Achiuwa and guard
Miles McBride will start in Thursday's game against Chicago.
Josh Hart (knee) and
OG Anunoby (foot) are both unavailable, so the team will need to plug some holes in the starting lineup. Granted, the Knicks still have
Jalen Brunson,
Karl-Anthony Towns, and
Mikal Bridges. But Achiuwa and McBride could easily exceed usual expectations, so both are worth streaming in any fantasy format.
Cameron Payne should also receive his share of work from off the bench.

New York Knicks forward/center
Precious Achiuwa will start Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. With
OG Anunoby (foot) ruled out for the contest,
Miles McBride was initially slated to replace him in the starting unit. However, it has now been announced that Achiuwa will get the nod. Achiuwa will have increased fantasy value in the role. In his only previous start this season, the 25-year-old posted a 13-point, 10-rebound double-double in a 133-107 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) is getting close to his season debut. Per Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News, Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau has said that Achiuwa could return to the court "in a week or so." The Nigerian big man suffered a left hamstring strain just before the 2024-25 campaign kicked off. After arriving from Toronto in a mid-season trade, Achiuwa notched 7.6 points and 7.2 rebounds in 24.2 minutes with the Knicks last term. He will likely have a smaller workload this season but will be a valuable backup to
Karl-Anthony Towns, and the two might even share the court occasionally.
