OG Anunoby may have shown some discomfort during Thursday’s action between the New York Knicks and Portland Trail Blazers, but the forward plans to play his next available game. Anunoby, who played in his second game after a lengthy absence due to the removal of a bone fragment from his right elbow on Feb. 8, scored 12 points on five-of-11 shooting in the Knicks’ 105-93 victory.
