New York Knicks News

Confirmed Lineup: Jalen Brunson, Donte DiVincenzo, RJ Barrett, Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson

• RJ Barrett (migraine) — In

• Quentin Grimes (wrist) — Out

• Evan Fournier (ankle) — Out

In five games without Barrett, the Knicks have scored 105.6 points per game, which would be the second-lowest scoring average league-wide. In their seven games with Barrett available, they've scored 113.1 points per game. Barrett's status is unclear for the second leg of a back-to-back set, but the last time he faced Charlotte, he scored a team-high 24 points in a win.

Charlotte Hornets News

• Terry Rozier (groin) — Out

• Nick Richards (concussion) — Out

• Frank Ntilikina (leg) — Injured

When Rozier is available, Ball's averaging 14.6 points on 14.8 field goal attempts per game. In the six games without Rozier, Ball has averaged 31.0 points on 23.0 field goal attempts per contest. Ball will attempt to maintain his recent success, but it will be a challenge as the Hornets face a Knicks team that allows the sixth-fewest points per game to point guards (21.3).

• CJ McCollum (lung) — Injured

• Trey Murphy (knee) — Injured

After winning four of their first six games with McCollum available, the Pelicans have now lost four of their last six since McCollum was sidelined. It won't get easier against the Timberwolves, whose opponents score the second-fewest points per game (105.6). New Orleans faced Minnesota five games ago and scored 101 points in a 21-point loss.

He converted 50.0% of his field goal attempts in those two games after converting 37.0% over the first eight contests. Lillard could have another high-scoring outing against the Mavs, who yield the seventh-most points per game (18.3) to pick-and-roll ball handlers.

Jacob Gilyard started in the last contest, while David Roddy played 31 minutes off the bench.

The Warriors' 106.5 Offensive Rating over the last two games sans Curry has been the league's seventh-worst. When Curry is available, that rating increases to 115.2. His final status will be critical against a Thunder team with a 109.2 Defensive Rating, the seventh-best of any team league-wide. Coach Kerr mentioned on Friday that he believes there's "a decent chance" that Curry plays in this outing.
