The New York Knicks have won only three of their last nine games but could return to the winning side when the Hawks visit MSG on Monday. The result didn't go in the Knicks' favor the last time the Hawks were in town for the NBA Cup quarterfinal.
Atlanta is on a three-game win streak, with its most recent victory being a 119-115 overtime victory over Boston. Trae Young scored a game-high 28 points on 10-of-23 shooting after missing the Hawks' previous game with a rib contusion. He's on the injury report for Monday but should play.
New York has two starters on its injury report, including Karl-Anthony Towns. The center has missed the last two games with a thumb sprain, an injury he suffered last Monday against Detroit. Towns also has a bone chip in his thumb, but the sprain is what's kept him sidelined.
Karl-Anthony Towns' status for today's game vs. Hawks
Karl-Anthony Towns (thumb sprain) is listed as questionable.
Josh Hart's status for today's game vs. Hawks
Josh Hart (neck) is listed as questionable.
Trae Young's status for today's game vs. Knicks
Trae Young (right Achilles tendinitis) is listed as probable.
Zaccharie Risacher's status for today's game vs. Knicks
