NBA Injury Update: Knicks OG Anunoby Out, Haliburton & Murray In

New York Knicks 

OG Anunoby: He’s confirmed out for Game 5 after suffering a hamstring injury in Game 2. With Game 6 not being until Friday, it is feasible that OG could ramp up enough to give it a go if the season is on the line, but it would undoubtedly have to be in a limited capacity.

Indiana Pacers

Tyrese Haliburton: He’s questionable for Game 5 but expected to play. He’s dealing with back spasms that appeared ahead of Game 4 and nursing other lingering injuries.

Minnesota Timberwolves

No Significant Injuries

Denver Nuggets

Jamal Murray: He’s questionable for Game 5 but expected to play. He’s dealing with a left calf strain, but he won’t miss time unless he aggravates the injury further.

Boston Celtics

Kristaps Porzingis: He remains out for the Celtics with a right soleus strain and is not expected to return in this series against Cleveland if it continues past Game 5. His status for the Eastern Conference Finals remains in the air, but it’s not likely that he will return for the start of the series.

Cleveland Cavaliers

Donovan Mitchell: He was ruled out for Game 4 just before tip with a left calf strain. It’s unclear what his Game 5 status looks like, but it isn’t easy to imagine him playing on Wednesday after he couldn’t go in Game 4 with the season on the line at home.

Jarrett Allen: He has remained out this entire series with a rib contusion, and it’s unlikely that he will play in Game 5.

Dallas Mavericks

Luka Doncic: He is dealing with a left ankle injury, but there is no chance it will keep him out of Game 5 on Wednesday. However, should he aggravate the injury, it’s something to monitor.

Oklahoma City Thunder

No Significant Injuries
