INJURIES

Available Wednesday Hukporti (quadriceps) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Kings.
Impact Hukporti will shed a questionable tag related to a right quadriceps strain and be available Wednesday for the Knicks. He remains a fringe rotation piece, though, and isn't guaranteed to see the floor versus the Kings.
20 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Wednesday Hukporti is questionable for Wednesday against the Kings with a right quadriceps strain.
Impact Hukporti is not typically a rotation player for the Knicks when the team is close to full strength, so this news is unlikely to have a big fantasy impact.
1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE
Knicks' latest decision makes their Ariel Hukporti stance crystal clear The New York Knicks are fully guaranteeing the contract of backup center Ariel Hukporti, a vote of confidence in the young center as he brea...

Not starting vs. Philadelphia Hukporti won't start against the 76ers on Saturday.
Impact With Karl-Anthony Towns (illness) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) both available and starting, Hukporti will slide to the second unit. The second-year center has averaged 1.5 points and 2.4 rebounds in 8.3 minutes per game across 17 appearances off the bench this season.
JANUARY 4 • ROTOWIRE
Grabs 16 boards in defeat Hukporti chipped in eight points (2-4 FG, 4-4 FT), 16 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 111-99 loss to the Hawks.
Impact With Karl-Anthony Towns (illness) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) sidelined for the front end of New York's back-to-back set, Hukporti got the starting nod for the fourth time this season. The second-year center made the most of the opportunity, grabbing a game- and career-high 16 rebounds. He also set a new season-best mark in blocks, matching his career high. Hukporti doesn't offer much fantasy value but could be a viable streaming option whenever Towns and Mitchell are both unavailable.

Johnson has another triple-double and the Hawks beat the Knicks 111-99

Jalen Johnson had 18 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds in his seventh triple-double of the season, leading the Atlanta Hawks to a 111-99 victory over the New York Knicks on Friday...
JANUARY 3 • Associated Press
Starting Friday Hukporti is in the Knicks' starting lineup against the Hawks on Friday, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
Impact Hukporti will draw the start for Friday night's game due to the absences of Karl-Anthony Towns (illness) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle). Hukporti made his last start against the Pacers on Dec. 18, when he tallied four points, five rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 27 minutes.
JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE
Available Wednesday Hukporti (lips) is available for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Impact Hukporti will shed his questionable tag and suit up Wednesday after sustaining a lip laceration in Monday's win over the Pelicans. The big man has appeared in three of the Knicks' last four games and will likely continue to see increased burn with Mitchell Robinson (ankle) sidelined.
DECEMBER 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Wednesday Hukporti (lips) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs.
Impact Hukporti sustained a lip laceration in Monday's win over the Pelicans and was unable to return. If the second-year center joins Mitchell Robinson (ankle) on the sidelines Wednesday, Guerschon Yabusele and Trey Jemison are candidates for increased playing time off the bench.

New York plays San Antonio on 3-game win streak

New York aims to keep its three-game win streak alive when the Knicks take on San Antonio
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • Associated Press
Won't return Monday Hukporti won't return to Monday's game against the Pelicans due to a mouth laceration.
Impact The big man suffered a cut in his mouth, and it seems the problem is severe enough to keep him sidelined for the rest of the game. He finished with no counting stats in 12 minutes of action off the bench. Hukporti's next chance to play will come Wednesday on the road against the Spurs.

Sliding to second unit Hukporti won't start against the 76ers on Friday.
Impact With Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) back in the lineup, Hukporti will retreat to the second unit after starting Thursday's win over Indiana. The Knicks will also have Mitchell Robinson (ankle) in the second leg of their back-to-back set, so Hukporti isn't likely to see significant minutes.
DECEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Joining starting five Hukporti is starting Thursday's game against the Pacers, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
Impact Hukporti is in line for his third start of the season but his first since Oct. 26. He'll get a look as a starter with both Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) sidelined Thursday.
DECEMBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back to G League New York assigned Hukporti to the G League's Westchester Knicks on Tuesday.
Impact Hukporti has 16 appearances to his name at the NBA level this season for an average of 7.9 minutes per contest, so this move will allow him to get some additional reps.
DECEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Swats three shots in win Hukporti registered six points (1-2 FG, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 106-100 win over the Magic.
Impact With Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) out Sunday, Hukporti was able to log extended minutes and took advantage of the opportunity, posting season highs in minutes, points, rebounds and blocks. If Towns can't go Tuesday against the Raptors, Hukporti could be in line to see an expanded role again behind Mitchell Robinson.

DECEMBER 7, 2025 • Associated Press
Logs 13 minutes in win Hukporti contributed zero points (0-2 FT) and four rebounds across 13 minutes during Monday's 113-100 victory over the Nets.
Impact Despite playing more than 12 minutes for the first time since Opening Night, Hukporti failed to score for the fifth time in his 10 appearances thus far this season. Even with injuries to multiple key pieces, the big man was unable to play a meaningful role, a trend that is likely to continue moving forward.
NOVEMBER 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Bench role Tuesday Hukporti will come off the bench during Tuesday's game against the Bucks.
Impact Hukporti will be in the second unit with Karl-Anthony Towns (quadriceps), sliding over to the center position and Landry Shamet starting in place of Deuce McBride (personal). Hukporti started the two games he's played, averaging 1.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game across 14.0 minutes per contest.
OCTOBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Starting sans McBride Hukporti will start in Sunday's game against the Heat, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact With Miles McBride (personal) sidelined, Hukporti will rejoin the starting lineup. The second-year big man started Wednesday's season-opening win over Cleveland with Mitchell Robinson (ankle) unavailable, recording two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds, two assists and one block in 18 minutes.
OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Moving to bench Friday Hukporti won't start in Friday's game against the Celtics, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
Impact With Miles McBride entering the starting five, Hukporti will retreat to the second unit. The second-year big man got the starting nod in Wednesday's season-opening win over Cleveland, during which he recorded two points (1-2 FG), five rebounds, two assists and one block in 18 minutes.

OCTOBER 23, 2025 • Associated Press
Set to start Wednesday Hukporti is expected to be in the starting lineup for Wednesday's season opener against Cleveland, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Impact Mitchell Robinson is getting the night off for load management Wednesday, so this will likely be only a spot start for Hukporti. The big man averaged just 8.7 minutes per game over 25 regular-season contests a year ago, but Hukporti carries some streaming appeal against the Cavaliers.
