Knicks' Kristaps Porzingis: Ruled out Sunday vs. Raptors
Porzingis (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis:
The Knicks have already acknowledged the fact that they could shut Porzingis down for the season, so the fact that he's being ruled out for a fourth straight game isn't a major surprise. He'll continue to be evaluated on a game-to-game basis, but with Carmelo Anthony (rest) and Lance Thomas (hip) set to sit out Sunday as well, Maurice Ndour could be in store for a huge workload as the team's likely starter at power forward. Marshall Plumlee and Kyle O'Quinn also figure to take on added minutes off the bench.
