Hooped Up

Knick forward David Lee has been inactive for the past two games with a right ankle sprain, and, according to the New York Post, it doesn’t look good for tonight’s game in Boston.

“No, it still hurts,” he said. “It’s going to be a little while.”

Knicks coach/president Isiah Thomas said Lee didn’t do anything at yesterday’s practice, but he envisions him returning against Golden State on Friday.

“We’re going to need him healthy and live and vibrant,” Thomas said. “If he has to miss one more game, so be it. But I don’t see him missing more than one more game, but you never know with the ankles.”
