Cleared for contact work
This is the first notable progress report in some time on McBride, who underwent surgery to repair a core muscle injury in early February. Stefan Bondy of The New York Post states that McBride is optimistic about a return for the postseason, but the team isn't yet ready to reveal a timetable for the 25-year-old's return at this stage in his rehab.

Ruled out Tuesday
Brunson was initially listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest due to right ankle injury management and a cervical strain, though he was downgraded to doubtful Tuesday morning and has now officially been ruled out. His next opportunity to play will come Friday against the Nets. With Brunson sidelined, Landry Shamet and Jose Alvarado are candidates for increased playing time, while Tyler Kolek may return to the rotation.

Iffy for Tuesday
Robinson was a very late addition to the injury report. Considering the opponent, the Knicks may opt to proceed with caution. Ariel Hukporti could soak up some backup center minutes if Robinson is held out.
