Al Harrington is going to have shoulder surgery tomorrow which will keep him out the next 3-4 months. He is due to become a unrestricted free agent this summer so he has likely played his last game for the Knicks. Harrington played in 72 games (15 starts) for the Knicks this season and he averaged 30.5 minutes, 17.7 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.

34-year old shooting guard Cuttino Mobley did not play all year for the Knicks before getting cut because he has a heart problem. He has likely played his last game in the NBA. Mobley has played in 747 games (581 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 37.0 minutes, 16.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.2 steals per game. It’s hard to see a guy like Cuttino Mobley’s career end this way because he was a solid basketball player.

The Knicks will be without Wilson Chandler (groin) and Eddy Curry (torn calf) for the remainder of the season. Chandler played in 65 games (64 starts) for the Knicks last season and he averaged 35.7 minutes, 15.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. The Knicks will miss him as he is turning into a pretty solid player. Eddy Curry only played in 7 games (0 starts) for the Knicks last season and he averaged 8.9 minutes, 3.7 points and 1.9 rebounds per game. The Knicks won’t miss him as he didn’t do much for them this year.

The Knicks have lost forward Jonathan Bender for the year due to having surgery on a broken finger. Bender played in 25 games (1 start) for the Knicks this season and he averaged 11.7 minutes, 4.7 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game. The Knicks shouldn’t miss him too much as he wasn’t getting much playing time this season anyway.

David Lee has been having an outstanding season for the New York Knicks, but his right knee has been bothering him lately and he is sitting out tonight’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers because of it.  This is the first game of the season that Lee has missed, and he is being listed as day-to-day since it is just knee tendinitis.  Tendinitis can linger for a while though, so it looks like Lee will have to play through some pain as the season winds down.  It’s a shame, because Lee has been one of the few bright spots for the disappointing Knicks this season.  He was named to the Eastern Conference All-Star team, and is averaging 20.1 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.04 steals, and 0.5 blocks.  He has shot the ball great as well, hitting 55% from the field and 79% from the line.  Lee’s injury is not a good sign for the Knicks, who are 24-44 on the season and are also without Eddy Curry (calf) and Wilson Chandler (groin), leaving their front court in disarray.
