Tyler will miss Thursday's game against the Heat for personal reasons, the Bergen Record reports.

Analysis:

Tyler's absence leaves the Knicks with just three healthy big men in Kenyon Martin, Andrea Bargnani, and Amar'e Stoudemire. With Carmelo Anthony capable of playing power forward, it shouldn't be a major issue for just one game. Tyler probably won't be sidelined for long, and starting center Tyson Chandler doesn't figure to miss too much more time with a respiratory infection.
