The Milwaukee Bucks are scheduled to face the New York Knicks on Sunday at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Prior to the game, the Knicks released their injury report, which includes their standout player Karl-Anthony Towns.
The Knicks’ decision to bring Towns on board has proven to be a significant success so far. They acquired KAT in a three-team trade earlier this season, sending Julius Randle to the Minnesota Timberwolves as part of the deal.
Towns has been a vital contributor to the Knicks’ strong performance this season. With a 25-13 record, they currently hold the third spot in the Eastern Conference standings. Towns is averaging 25.3 points, 14.0 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game.
Towns is listed as questionable for the game against the Bucks due to a knee injury. The Knicks’ injury report also includes Mitchell Robinson, who will be sidelined with an ankle injury, and Miles McBride, who is questionable with a hamstring issue.
On the Bucks’ side, their star trio, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Damian Lillard, are all listed as questionable. Giannis is dealing with a knee issue, Middleton has an ankle injury, and Lillard is managing a calf strain. In addition, Ryan Rollins is questionable due to illness.

“I mean, that’s the legend. That’s the man who built Mecca. For me to grow up watching him play, and now for him to watch me play in the Mecca, is a humbling experience. To be able to have him sit courtside like that. The little kid in me is jumping for joy,” Towns said.
Ewing defined an era for the Knicks and inspired countless young athletes. With inspiration from legends like Ewing, Towns is also vying to set his mark in New York.
