If OG Anunoby or Josh Hart do not play in Game 7 against the Indiana Pacers it will be because it is completely impossible for them to do so. According to reports ESPNboth players are willing to push through their respective physical problems to help the Knicks reach the Eastern Conference finals, an event unknown to the franchise since 2000.

Starting with Anunoby, he plans to participate in shooting practice on Sunday morning and test himself against the Indianapolis team. Although at first it was assumed that the forward would not be able to play until a hypothetical Eastern finals, the organization has changed his status to doubt for tonight, since his rehabilitation has gone well and it is believed that there is a real opportunity to that can be on the parquet.

The former Toronto Raptors player has not played since May 6, the day he suffered a hamstring injury. Before such a problem he was averaging 16.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block in the current playoffs.

The one who seems like he will play it safe is Josh Hart. The Knicks also keep him as doubtful on the injury report due to an abdominal strain, but he is expected to do everything possible to be on the floor. In any case, his situation is delicate, since abdominal ailments have little treatment and he will almost certainly have to play with pain, which can occur even with the simple act of breathing. In his case, he is averaging 14.9 points, 11.8 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 42.6 minutes per game in these playoffs.
