The Knicks got a significant injury boost with OG Anunoby.
He was upgraded to questionable for the team’s game against the Jazz on Friday night at the Garden.
He has been out since Nov. 14 with a left hamstring strain.

The Knicks have gone 6-3 in nine games without him.
On Wednesday, coach Mike Brown said that Anunoby had been cleared for contact .
He had been enjoying a strong start to the season in 12 games before sustaining his injury, averaging 15.8 points per game on 47.6 percent shooting from the field and 39.2 percent from deep.
The Knicks’ best defender who usually guards opponents’ best scorers, his return should certainly help on that side of the ball as well.
