Even after taking a 2-0 series lead, the Knicks are likely holding their breath.

OG Anunoby was subbed out of the Knicks’ Game 2 win over the 76ers for Miles McBride with 2:31 left in the fourth quarter and did not re-enter the game due to what appeared to be a leg injury.

With a little over three minutes left in the game, Anunoby was blocked by Paul George on a dunk attempt and appeared to come up a bit lame while making a cut to the basket before the dunk.

He was not on the bench for the conclusion of the game.

Knicks coach Mike Brown did not have any additional information on Anunoby’s status after the game.

“I have not talked to anybody. He looked like he was hopping,” Brown said.

Anunoby was a force for the Knicks in the win with 24 points, five rebounds, four steals and two assists.

If he misses any length of time, that would be a huge hole to fill for the Knicks.
