Tonight marks the first of three matchups against the Knicks — and former coach Tom Thibodeau — in the final six games of the regular season.

I’m told OG Anunoby will return to the Knicks and play tonight against the Chicago Bulls.

OG Anunoby is listed as questionable for Knicks game vs. Bulls tonight, per the NBA injury report. Anunoby has missed past nine games due to elbow ailment. Tom Thibodeau said yesterday NYK was cautiously optimistic about Anunoby. This is a big step toward Anunoby’s return. – 2:30 PM
