O'Quinn will come off the bench for Monday's matchup with the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

After being initially reported to start, O'Quinn will come off the bench as Michael Beasley will get the start. O'Quinn has seen over twenty minutes in three of the past four games, with averages of 9.0 points and 6.5 rebounds during that stretch.

O'Quinn will start Monday's game against Philadelphia, Ian Begley of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Knicks will tweak their lineup in the frontcourt, going with O'Quinn at power forward and Lance Thomas at small forward, while Courtney Lee and Michael Beasley both shift to the bench. Enes Kanter will get the nod at center, while the starting backcourt of Jarrett Jack and Tim Hardaway, Jr. remains the same.

O'Quinn posted nine points (4-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, two blocks and one assist across 26 minutes in Thursday's 113-88 loss to the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

The Knicks struggled offensively with their two big men out, but that opened the door for O'Quinn to get extra minuted and opportunities. While he wasn't as efficient as expected, he did take double-digit shots, and may be in line for more minutes moving forward with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) done for the year.

O'Quinn will start at center for Thursday's contest against the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

With Enes Kanter (mouth) and Kristaps Porzingis (knee) out, the Knicks will resort to deploying Michael Beasley and O'Quinn in the frontcourt. Considering O'Quinn is the team's only experienced center available, he'll likely see big run and is an intriguing DFS play.

O'Quinn scored 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 FT) while adding six rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 22 minutes in Sunday's 99-96 loss to the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn hasn't registered 20-plus minutes in the past two weeks, so it was a good sign to see him get that run and actually produce with it. He contributed in every stat category and was efficient with his chances, something that the Knicks would like to see every night from their players coming off the bench. Maybe the solid outing will net him more minutes going forward, but with Enes Kanter and Kristaps Porzingis manning the front court, it will be tough to predict O'Quinn's usage.

O'Quinn (calf), whose status was up in the air prior to tipoff, ended up seeing the floor during Friday's 107-85 win over the Suns. He recorded four points (1-4 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn had been nursing a left calf bruise that kept him out of two straight games, but was able to return in solid fashion Saturday, recording three blocks for the first time since Dec. 22 against the Pistons. He continues to play a small rotational role when most of the team is healthy, averaging 14.5 minutes per game over his past four appearances.

O'Quinn (calf) has been ruled out of Thursday's tilt against the Nuggets, Harrison Wind of BSNDenver.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn will miss a second straight game Thursday as he continues to be bothered by a left calf contusion. In his stead, Willy Hernangomez, Michael Beasley and Lance Thomas are candidates to see extra run.

O'Quinn (calf) is questionable for Thursday's contest against the Nuggets, Steve Popper of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn missed Tuesday's contest against the Warriors due to a left calf contusion, which could keep him from playing Thursday. More information on his status should emerge following morning shootaround. With him and Kristaps Porzingis (knee) both out Tuesday, Michael Beasley (35 minutes, 15 shots), Lance Thomas (20 minutes, seven shots) and Willy Hernangomez (18 minutes, four shots) all saw expanded roles. Some combination of those players would be candidates to see extra time again if O'Quinn and/or Porzingis get ruled out Thursday.

O'Quinn is out for Tuesday's contest against the Warriors due to a left calf bruise, Steve Popper of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is the first news of O'Quinn dealing with an injury, which may have occurred during Sunday's game against the Lakers. With Kristaps Porzingis (knee) also ruled out for Tuesday's tilt, coach Jeff Hornacek will have to dig deeper into his frontcourt depth than usual. That could result in Michael Beasley drawing a start and seeing extended run, making him a strong DFS option. Lance Thomas, Doug McDermott and Willy Hernangomez could also see expanded roles.

O'Quinn (illness/calf) will play Monday against the 76ers, Ian Begley of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

O'Quinn's status was a question mark after the Knicks acknowledged that he was dealing with a calf strain in addition to his existing illness, but neither issue is inhibited much an hour before the game. With that in mind, look for O'Quinn to serve as the top backup to starting center Enes Kanter, a role that has afforded the former 19.4 minutes per game over the Knicks' last five outings.
