Robinson (ankle) participated in Friday's practice, per Steve Popper of Newsday.

Although Robinson missed New York's final two contests of the regular season, all signs point toward him being available for Game 1 on Saturday versus the Hawks. The 28-year-old big man finished the 2025-26 campaign with averages of 5.7 points, 8.8 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 19.6 minutes per tilt over 60 games, shooting 72.3 percent from the floor.

Hart (ankle) is available for Game 1 against the Hawks on Saturday.

The Knicks will have their full roster available after sitting most of their starters in the season finale. Hart is not expected to have any limitations to open the postseason.

Brunson (ankle) is available for Game 1 against the Hawks on Saturday.

Brunson was sidelined for the regular-season finale as a precaution, but his status to open the postseason was never in doubt. He finished the regular season with averages of 26.0 points, 6.8 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 2.6 threes and 0.8 steals over 35.0 minutes per game.

Anunoby (ankle) is available for Game 1 against the Hawks on Saturday.

The Knicks submitted a clean injury report ahead of the playoffs and will be at full strength. Anunoby twisted his ankle during Friday's win over the Raptors and proceeded to sit out Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Hornets, but he practiced Friday with no issues.

Porzingis (ankle) is expected to play Friday against the Suns, Anthony Slater of ESPN.com reports.

Porzingis is carrying a questionable tag, which is par for the course, but the Warriors are planning for him to suit up with their season on the line in the final Western Conference Play-In Game. Presumably, Porzingis will see a modest workload if given the green light.

Embiid (abdomen) is officially out for Game 1 against Boston on Sunday, according to 76ers reporter Dave Uram.

76ers coach Nick Nurse didn't provide an updated timetable for Embiid, though it's been widely reported that he would miss at least the start of the first round. The 76ers will likely lean on Adem Bona and Andre Drummond in the meantime.

Quickley (hamstring) is questionable for Game 1 against the Cavaliers on Saturday, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.

For several days, the Raptors have said Quickley is day-to-day, so the questionable tag comes as no surprise. The Raptors may wait to see how he responds to warmups before a decision is made on his availability. Quickley appeared in three of Toronto's final four regular-season contests following an eight-game absence.

Allen (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors.

Allen is in danger of missing a third straight matchup while dealing with hamstring soreness. He'll likely test the injury in shootaround and warmups to see if he can suit up for Friday's clash.

Williams is questionable for Friday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors due to left foot soreness.

It's unclear if this is a new injury for Williams, who was held out of the regular-season finale due to foot injury maintenance and was then cleared to play in Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers. The Suns should have another update on the big man's status closer to tipoff. Oso Ighodaro would draw the start at center if Williams can't go.

Post (foot) is out for Friday's Play-In Tournament game against the Suns.

Post is in line for a ninth consecutive absence while on the mend from a right foot injury. If the Warriors are able to emerge victorious Friday, his next opportunity to take the court would arrive in Game 1 of the first round against Oklahoma City on Sunday.
