The New York Knicks will reportedly be getting a boost to their lineup as they hit the court on Friday in Cleveland.
According to ESPN's Shams Charania, OG Anunoby will make his return to the Knicks after missing the team's last six games with toe and foot injuries.
He was hurt on Feb. 1 during the Knicks' 128-112 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. He had caught the ball near the left sideline while guarded by LeBron James and went to one knee while holding his lower right leg. He eventually got up and walked to the locker room area.
Anunoby has been a key member of New York's rotation this season. The 27-year-old is averaging 16.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks over 49 games in his first full season with the Knicks.
New York enters play Friday sitting third in the Eastern Conference with a 37-18 record.
