Anthony went through the morning shoot around but when he tested his sprained right ankle at the hotel in the afternoon, he had trouble pushing off and moving laterally. The Knicks were playing without Carmelo Anthony and still almost pulled off the upset thanks to 23 points and 13 rebounds from rookie Kristaps Porzingis. It’s expected that he’ll claim his usual spot in the starting lineup Wednesday, but because of the upcoming heavy slate, he could see his minutes limited a bit.
