Newest Knicks set to make debuts, but Isaiah Hartenstein ruled out for Saturday in latest injury worry
NY Post
The injury-ravaged Knicks certainly could use a few warm bodies after employing a seven-man rotation in the second half of Thursday’s loss to the Mavericks.
Recently acquired veterans Alec Burks and Bojan Bogdanovic are expected to play when the Knicks face the Pacers on Saturday night at the Garden.
But center Isaiah Hartenstein already has been ruled out after leaving Thursday’s game at halftime after aggravating his recurring left Achilles injury.
He also missed two games due to the issue in January.
Hartenstein has averaged 8.3 points and 11.2 rebounds in 24 games as a starter this season, with Mitchell Robinson sideliend since early December following ankle surgery.
Jalen Brunson is listed as questionable again after sitting out Thursday’s game with a sprained right ankle.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
