What happened: New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and is listed as day-to-day, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania. Anunoby suffered the injury during Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Philadelphia 76ers, grabbing at the back of his right leg on a cut with roughly three minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. He is officially questionable for Game 3 on Friday in Philadelphia.

Why it matters: Anunoby is the Knicks' second-leading scorer this postseason at 21.4 points per game, and his two-way value as a primary wing defender is central to New York's matchup against Philadelphia. Losing him — even for a single game — would force the Knicks to lean harder on their guard rotation in a series already shaped by the absence of Joel Embiid for the 76ers. The injury lands at the most leveraged point of the series, with the next two games shifting to Philadelphia.

What to watch: Watch for MRI results to clarify the grade of the strain and whether Anunoby travels with the team to Philadelphia. Game 3 tips Friday, with his designation likely to firm up after Thursday's practice or Friday morning shootaround.
