New York head coach Mike Brown shared an injury update on OG Anunoby after the Knicks star was seen hobbling late in their Game 2 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday (PH time) at Madison Square Garden.

Anunoby hopped on his left leg with 3:08 remaining in the fourth quarter as he grabbed the backside of his right thigh. He tried to play through the pain but missed a dunk attempt.

Anunoby stayed on the court for a while but signaled to the Knicks bench to be taken out after Mikal Bridges buried a midrange jumper.

Brown answered questions about Anunoby's condition during the post-game press conference, saying: “I haven’t talked to anybody. He looked like he was hopping. I have not talked to medical yet."

The Knicks hope Anunoby's injury is nothing serious as he has been a vital cog for New York in this series. He starred in the Knicks' 108-102 win in Game 2, scoring 24 points, grabbing 5 rebounds, and nabbing 4 steals.
