Robinson posted six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and one assist across 15 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 win over the Hawks in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Robinson logged no more than 15 minutes for the third time in the past four games, continuing to offer limited production on both ends of the floor. With Atlanta paper-thin when it comes to the center spot, Robinson's size is simply not needed as much as usual. While he should remain a constant piece of the rotation, it is unlikely he will playing a sizeable role, at least not during the current series.

Bridges amassed eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 19 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 victory over Atlanta in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Despite remaining in the starting lineup, Bridges was limited to just 19 minutes, continuing what has been a poor start to the playoffs. Through four games, he has averaged 7.3 points, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.8 three-pointers. Given his recent struggles, there is a chance his role as a starter could be coming to an end should Mike Brown opt to go with a different look.

Anunoby racked up 22 points (9-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 40 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 victory over the Hawks in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Anunoby continued his stellar play, recording his first double-double of the playoffs while also dropping at least 22 points for the second straight game. Saturday's win now sees the two teams locked at 2-2 heading back to New York for Game 5. Anunoby will look to control both ends of the floor, as the Knicks push for an important series lead once again.

Dosunmu posted 43 points (13-17 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 12-12 FT), four rebounds, an assist and a block across 42 minutes off the bench in Saturday's Game 4 win over the Nuggets.

Not only did Dosumnu post a career-high scoring mark, he also scored the second-most points off the bench in playoff history. The five-year veteran was coming off a 25-point performance in Game 3, and Dosumnu is pretty much locked into a bigger role, as Donte DiVincenzo (Achilles) will miss the rest of the playoffs, while Anthony Edwards (knee) is uncertain to be available for Game 5 on Monday.

Randle was ejected from Saturday's Game 4 win over the Nuggets with 1.3 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He finished with 15 points (6-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes.

Nikola Jokic went straight at Jaden McDaniels after the forward scored a layup in the final seconds when the game was already decided, and the star big man was ejected following a fight that got several players from both teams involved. That includes Randle, who was ejected for trying to go at Jokic before coaches, referees and players broke up the fight. It remains to be seen if the league will take any disciplinary action toward Randle ahead of Game 5, which will be played Monday in Denver. From a fantasy perspective, Randle didn't have his best game, but he may need to handle a higher usage rate in Game 5, particularly if Anthony Edwards (knee) is unable to play.

Jokic was ejected from Saturday's Game 4 loss to the Timberwolves with 1.3 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He finished with 24 points (8-22 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 15 rebounds, nine assists, three steals and a block across 41 minutes.

Jokic went straight at Jaden McDaniels after the forward scored a layup in the final seconds when the game was already decided, and the star big man was ejected following a fight that got several players from both teams involved. It remains to be seen if the league will take any disciplinary action toward Jokic ahead of Game 5, which will be played Monday in Denver. From a fantasy perspective, Jokic finished just one assist away from recording what would've been his second triple-double of the series. Even though Jokic has scored at least 24 points in each game, he's been struggling with his shot in the three losses, going 23-for-87 from the floor.

Towns registered 20 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 10 rebounds, 10 assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Saturday's 114-98 win over the Hawks in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Towns notched the first postseason triple-double of his career and finished with a plus-16 differential in the 16-point win. He played a pivotal role in helping the Knicks even up their first-round series with the Hawks, and now they'll head back to New York for Game 5 on Tuesday.

DiVincenzo has been diagnosed with a torn right Achilles tendon, and he will miss the remainder of the postseason, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

An Achilles tear comes with a lengthy rehab period, so it wouldn't be shocking to see DiVincenzo wind up missing the entire 2026-27 season, but we'll have a better idea of his potential timetable after he undergoes surgery. Ayo Dosunmu and Bones Hyland will help absorb DiVincenzo's minutes in Minnesota.

Gordon (calf) will return to Saturday's Game 4 in Minnesota, Duvalier Johnson of TheDNVR.com reports.

Gordon briefly exited Saturday's game, but after getting checked on in the locker room, he's been cleared to return. Gordon doesn't appear to be 100 percent healthy, but he's good enough to play.

Gordon went back to the locker room during the third quarter of Saturday's Game 4 versus the Timberwolves with an undisclosed injury, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

It's unclear exactly what Gordon is dealing with, but he was playing through a left calf issue, so he may have had a flare-up. We should get more info soon, but if Gordon needs to miss time, that would open up minutes for Tim Hardaway and Spencer Jones.
