OG Anunoby has emerged as a vital offensive and defensive force for the Knicks.<\/p>\n
\u2022\u00a0Download the NBA App<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n GREENBURGH, N.Y. (AP) \u2014<\/strong> OG Anunoby could only participate in some parts of practice when the New York Knicks returned to work Wednesday.<\/p>\n Luckily for them, they still have time to wait.<\/p>\n With at least a few more days before the Knicks would start the Eastern Conference Finals<\/a>, they can be patient with Anunoby\u2019s recovery from a hamstring injury\u00a0that forced him to miss<\/a> the last two games of their\u00a0second-round sweep of Philadelphia.<\/p>\n Coach Mike Brown said the starting forward did some things, though not when the Knicks went full speed. He said Anunoby looked fine with what he did, though it certainly sounds like there\u2019s a gap between what that was and the intensity of an NBA postseason game.<\/p>\n Brown added that he isn\u2019t sure when Anunoby can do more \u2014 and the Knicks don\u2019t even know how soon that would need to be. Game 1 against Detroit or Cleveland could be Sunday, though the series wouldn\u2019t begin until next week if those teams, who were tied 2-2 entering Game 5 on Wednesday, go the distance.<\/p>\n \u201cThey told me what he could do today. They have not told me what he could do tomorrow, so I don\u2019t know what he\u2019ll be able to do for Game 1,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"OG Anunoby has emerged as a vital offensive and defensive force for the Knicks. \u2022\u00a0Download the NBA App…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":795369,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[40],"tags":[158597,1260,324536,62,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-795368","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-hamstring","tag-nba","tag-og-anunuoby","tag-sports","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116571873097309682","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/795368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=795368"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/795368\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/795369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=795368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=795368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=795368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
