Jose Calderon doesn't believe the knee injury he sustained in Friday's win over the Magic is serious, but wasn't certain if he would be able to play Saturday against the Bobcats, Newsday reports.

Calderon doesn't believe the knee injury he sustained in Friday's win over the Magic is serious, but wasn't certain if he would be able to play Saturday against the Hornets, Newsday reports.

Analysis:

Calderon sustained what has been labeled as a left knee contusion during the third quarter and didn't return, resulting in him seeing a season-low 20 minutes. The Knicks will likely reevaluate him Saturday morning and see if he experiences any healing with the knee, but there's little incentive to keep him active if he proves to be less than 100 percent. Pablo Prigioni and Shane Larkin would likely stand to see an uptick in minutes if Calderon is ruled out for Saturday's contest.
