Mohamed Diawara (NYK): Day-To-Day

Mohamed Diawara, the Knicks' forward who wears jersey #51, is listed as day‑to‑day with a finger injury. The team noted he missed Friday’s Summer League game, a 110‑88 loss to the Mavericks. Diawara has contributed modestly this season, averaging 3.6 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.8 assists over 69 games while shooting 42.3 percent from the field.

The Knicks sit at 53‑29, third in the Eastern Conference and seventh in the league’s power rankings, with a net rating of +6.3. While Diawara’s numbers are limited, his presence adds depth to the forward rotation, especially as the team navigates a recent loss and a one‑game skid. The club expects him back by October 1, after which they can reassess his role as the season progresses.
