Knicks’ Karl-Anthony Towns questionable vs. Magic after knee injury scare

After limping out of the loss in Chicago, Karl-Anthony Towns was listed by the Knicks as questionable for Monday’s game against the Magic with right knee soreness.

Officially, the diagnosis is right knee tendinopathy, also known as jumper’s knee, with pain and inflammation underneath the kneecap.

It’s not a serious acute injury but commonly arrives from overuse and Towns, 29, is averaging his most minutes since the 2017-18 season.

He missed a game earlier this season with the same ailment to the same knee.

Without Towns for Monday, the Knicks frontcourt would be thin with Precious Achiuwa, Jericho Sims and Ariel Hukporti as the options.

Towns had been favoring his knee in the latter part of Saturday’s loss to the Bulls but still dropped 26 of his 44 points in the fourth quarter.
