O'Quinn (hip) is expected to return Saturday against Detroit, Ian Begley of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The forward has missed the last three games while nursing a strained left hip, but the Knicks are confident that he'll be able to return to action Saturday night. With Enes Kanter (back) expected to sit out, O'Quinn could see a slight bump in minutes, assuming he's cleared.

Knicks head coach Jeff Hornacek said that O'Quinn (hip) won't play in Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Chris Iseman of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn's strained left hip prevented him from partaking in shootaround and will result in him missing his third consecutive game. His absence in back-to-back games Friday and Saturday paved the way for starting center Enes Kanter to log a combined 60 minutes in those contests and secure a pair of double-doubles. Kanter should be looking at another healthy minutes count Wednesday, with Luke Kornet likely acting as his primary backup in the middle.

O'Quinn (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the 76ers, Ian Begley of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn has missed two straight games due to a left hip strain, though has improved enough to be listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game. Look for more information on his status following the team's morning shootaround.

O'Quinn (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup with the Hornets, Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn is set to miss a second consecutive game, as he continues to deal with a strained left hip. He'll have another two days off prior to Wednesday's tilt vs. the Sixers to get healthy, though tentatively consider him questionable for that contest for the time being. With O'Quinn out, look for Luke Kornet to see added run off the bench in the frontcourt.

O'Quinn is dealing with a strained left hip and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn likely suffered the injury during Friday's tilt with the Timberwolves, though the exact severity is still a bit unclear. Either way, his absence will likely provide some additional minutes for guys like Isaiah Hicks and Luke Kornet off the bench, especially with the G-League regular season having now been completed. With the Knicks currently going into a back-to-back set, there's certainly a chance O'Quinn is also forced to sit out Monday's tilt with the Hornets.

O'Quinn contributed 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three steals, one assist and one block across 24 minutes in Thursday's 118-110 loss to the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn earned his usual minutes Thursday night and did the most with them, logging a double-double and three steals on the defensive end. With the Knicks experimenting with their roster, O'Quinn could see more minutes down the stretch, thus only helping his value going forward.

O'Quinn scored 14 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding six assists, three blocks, two rebounds and a steal in 17 minutes off the bench during Friday's 120-112 loss to the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old took advantage of Milwaukee's lack of size or muscle on their second unit to post some amazing per-minute numbers, and he now has nine blocks in his last three games. Despite his defensive prowess, O'Quinn's overall production is too erratic to make him useful in most fantasy formats, however -- he's scored exactly 14 points in five of his last 10 games, but failed to score more than four in any of the other five.

O'Quinn generated 14 points (4-6 FG, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, three blocks and two steals across 26 minutes in Sunday's 102-99 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

The big man's scoring total led the second unit, and his final pair of free throws with 16.6 seconds left knotted the game at 99-99 at the time. Although the Knicks would ultimately give up a game-winning three-pointer to Skal Labissiere, it was one of O'Quinn's most productive outings of the season, and he notably outpaced starter Enes Kanter in playing time. O'Quinn now has a trio of 14-point efforts over the past five games, and he's hauled in between six and eight boards in four of those contests as well. Given his relatively steady second-unit role and solid scoring and rebounding contributions, he remains an option for those in deeper formats needing to shore up those categories for the stretch run.

O'Quinn scored 14 points (7-10 FG) while adding six rebounds and two assists in 21 minutes off the bench during Monday's 125-111 loss to the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

He saw more minutes than starting center Enes Kanter and out-produced him as well, although that was primarily the result of facing Golden State, a team notorious for using smaller lineups and an uptempo style. O'Quinn is capable of providing solid numbers when he gets a chance, but as long as Kanter is healthy, his backup will remain a risky fantasy play.

O'Quinn finished with four points (2-5 FG), two rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in 12 minutes during Monday's 108-92 loss to the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn had three fouls and three turnovers and was limited to the minutes leftover by Enes Kanter. Even Luke Kornet stole some time from O'Quinn, and the veteran will occasionally have a bad night like this even with Kristaps Porzingis (ACL) sidelined for the rest of 2017-18. With that being said, O'Quinn remains a decent source of well-rounded production, and his value would likely skyrocket (to a certain extent) if Kanter were to suffer an injury.
