Cooper Flagg
January 2026

Flagg returned from a two-game ankle absence for his first pro game at Madison Square Garden, while Brunson and Hart also returned for a Knicks side hit by injuries. Flagg was cleared after workouts following a left ankle sprain; Brunson came back from a right ankle sprain and Hart returned after soreness management, with the Knicks staff noting they have rarely had their preferred group available together.
