Knicks-76ers Notes: OG Anunoby's status in question; Mikal Bridges has 'great game' on both ends

The New York Knicks defeated the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals on May 7, 2026, taking a 2-0 series lead. Forward OG Anunoby suffered a leg injury late in the game, leaving with 2:31 remaining and not returning, putting his status for the series in question — he averages 21.4 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game. Mikal Bridges was praised for his performance on both ends of the court as the Knicks closed out the win without Anunoby.
