New York Knicks wing OG Anunoby suffered a right hamstring strain in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Philadelphia 76ers and is questionable for Game 3, league sources confirmed to The Athletic.<\/p>\n

Anunoby was injured in New York\u2019s 108-102 win<\/a> against the 76ers on Wednesday night. With the win, the Knicks took a 2-0 lead in the series, but Anunoby was subbed out for guard Miles McBride with 2:31 left in the game and did not return.<\/p>\n

Anunoby was not on the Knicks\u2019 bench as they completed a fourth-quarter rally in which they outscored the 76ers 19-12 in the final frame. He\u2019ll be day-to-day going forward, per league sources.<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t talked to anybody. He looked like he was hopping,\u201d Knicks coach Mike Brown said about a half hour after New York\u2019s win, its fifth straight.<\/p>\n

Anunoby finished Wednesday\u2019s game with 24 points and four steals. It was his fourth game in these playoffs with more than 20 points<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the regular season, the 28-year-old averaged 16.7 points per game and shot 38.6 percent from 3. One of the game\u2019s most versatile defenders, he seems likely to earn a spot on one of the NBA\u2019s yet-to-be-announced All-Defensive teams.<\/p>\n
