For the first time this season, the New York Knicks had their entire roster participate in practice on Wednesday, hinting at possible post-All-Star break returns for Mitchell Robinson and OG Anunoby. Robinson, sidelined since May due to ankle surgery, took part in full 5-on-5 scrimmages alongside Anunoby, who recently recovered from a sprained right foot.

Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau remained non-committal about their availability for Thursday’s game against the Bulls. "Mitch was good, OG was good," Thibodeau said, emphasizing that medical clearance is still pending. "He [Robinson] looks good but needs to regain his timing." Robinson’s return could impact the Knicks' rotation, particularly by reducing Karl-Anthony Towns' minutes at center. His rim protection, rebounding, and defensive presence will be key. "He’ll need time, but his hustle, pick-and-roll play, and rebounding will make an immediate difference," Thibodeau added.
