The New York Knicks may be healthier than they have been in weeks for Game 7 against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday afternoon. OG Anunoby and Josh Hart are both likely to play in the deciding game in New York.
Anunoby has been out since suffering a hamstring strain in Game 2 of the series on May 8. He's worked tirelessly to be able to play, and now it appears Anunoby will make his return after missing about a week-and-a-half.
Hart had an abdominal strain early in Game 6. He attempted to play through the injury initially, but was ruled out later in the game. Hart has been a key player for New York, playing the entirety of several games during this playoff run.
Jamal Murray was limited by a right elbow injury during the Denver Nuggets Game 6 blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The good news for the Nuggets is that the injury doesn't seem to be carrying over to the do-or-die Game 7.
After practice ahead of Game 7 in Denver, Murray stayed late to get up extra shots. Nuggets coach Michael Malone said that Murray "feels great" and that his star guard "looked very hungry today".
"Look like he hadn't eaten in two days," Malone said about Murray. "So hopefully that carries over tomorrow. I hope he doesn't eat until tomorrow until 6:00 p.m."
Josh Hart suffered an abdominal strain in the New York Knicks' Game 6 loss, but will attempt to play through the injury in Game 7 against the Indiana Pacers.
Hart is averaging 42.6 minutes per game in the playoffs and has played 48 or more minutes in four games.
The Knicks also hope to have OG Anunoby back in the lineup for Game 7.
OG Anunoby has been upgraded to questionable for Game 7 by the New York Knicks as they host the Indiana Pacers.
Anunoby has been out since Game 2 with a hamstring injury.
Anunoby will go through shootaround to determine whether he will be able to play in the game.
Josh Hart exited the New York Knicks' Game 6 loss against the Indiana Pacers with abdominal soreness.

The Knicks will host the Pacers in Game 7 on Sunday.
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis is likely to miss Games 1 and 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Porzingis is rehabbing from a strained right calf.
The Celtics are awaiting the winner of the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers series. The Eastern Conference Finals is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, May 21. Game 2 is scheduled for Thursday, May 23.
Porzingis was injured in Game 4 of the first-round series against the Miami Heat. The Celtics went on to win that series in five games. Then, Boston was without their starting center for the entire five-game victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round.
The Celtics have continued to express optimism that Porzingis would return at some point in the playoffs. Now, it looks like that return may come in the middle of the Eastern Conference Finals.
OG Anunoby has been ruled out by the New York Knicks for Game 6 at the Indiana Pacers.
Anunoby has been out with a hamstring injury since Game 2.
The Knicks enter Game 6 with a 3-2 series lead.
There is some level of optimism that Anunoby could play in a potential Game 7 or in the Eastern Conference Finals if the Knicks advance.
Members of the Cleveland Cavaliers were frustrated by the way Jarrett Allen handled his rib injury, sources told The Athletic.
Allen was elbowed by Franz Wagner in Game 1 of their first-round series against the Magic. The move "pierced" a rib on Allen's right side.
Allen was listed as questionable for every Cavs game after the initial injury, though he was not close to playing.
There was frustration among people in the team that Allen refused an injection to numb the pain and play.
OG Anunoby has been out since Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals with a hamstring injury, but there is optimism he could return if the New York Knicks advance to the Conference Finals. Anunoby is expected to miss Game 6 at the Indiana Pacers on Friday, but could possibly play Game 7 if the series extends, or Game 1 of the next round if the Knicks advance.
“He’s out of the pool and doing some court work for the Knicks,” Brian Windhorst said Wednesday.
“If the Knicks advance, the fact that he’s already out there on the court and doing some light work makes it a possibility that the Knicks could potentially see him in the Eastern Conference Finals should they get one more victory.”
“He’s doing everything he can to try to get back ASAP but from what I was told it’s looking more likely a return for the Eastern Conference Finals, should the Knicks get there…look like that’s gonna be a realistic target date,” Chris B. Haynes of TNT said Tuesday.
According to Adam Zagoria of NJ Advance Media, Anunoby is spending at least eight hours per day rehabbing the injury.
