Four players are listed on the New York Knicks' injury report ahead of their blockbuster showdown against the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday. Karl-Anthony Towns headlines the list with his lingering right quad strain and is listed as "questionable." The five-time All-Star has displayed remarkable courage and determination to play through pain to begin the new season.

Towns clocked over 30 minutes in each of the previous three games. In his most recent outing against the Miami Heat on Sunday, the veteran big man recorded 15 points, 18 rebounds, two assists, one steal and two blocks in 6 minutes. Despite his double-double production, New York lost the game and suffered its first defeat of the season.

Karl-Anthony Towns' ability to score on all three levels and his knack for making the right play make him a key cog in the Knicks' roster. Having said that, the nagging quad injury has taken a toll on his efficiency. Towns, who has shot 52.3% from the field for his career, is shooting 40.5% this season through three games.

Apart from Towns, French star Geurschon Yabusele is also listed as "questionable" owing to a left knee sprain. He has played in the last three games, and a final decision on his availability against the Bucks will be made just before tip-off.

Miles McBride is questionable due to personal reasons. He played in the first two games but was sidelined from the previous encounter against the Heat.

Meanwhile, Mitchell Robinson remains sidelined owing to left ankle injury management. The athletic center is yet to make his season debut for the Knicks.
