Saturday's NBA Injury News
The New York Knicks are hoping to see Alec Burks return to the lineup for their road matchup against the Indiana Pacers. Burks, their second-leading scorer and best 3-point shooter, would provide a shooting boost to a team that shot 3-of-36 from behind the arc Thursday.
Sacramento Kings rookie Tyrese Haliburton will miss at least the next two games with a left wrist bone bruise. Eric Gordon is listed as probable to play with a sore knee after making his season debut on Thursday.
