Raymond Felton (ankle) finished the Knicks' Game 6 loss to the Pacers with two points on 0-of-7 shooting, ending his season on a down-beat.
During the playoffs Felton averaged 15.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.7 steals in 38 minutes per game. Other than the assists those numbers are an improvement from his regular season, during which he also shot just 42.7 percent from the field. He's shot better than 43.1 percent once in his career (2008-09 with Charlotte) and we're not expecting a jump-shot renaissance in 2013-14. May 19 - 12:17 AM

Date:

Raymond Felton (ankle) is "fine," and is expected to play in Game 6 vs. Indiana after receiving treatment.

Felton's been dealing with the ankle issue since the beginning of the month, but he doesn't anticipate taking any time off and that lines up with both the Knicks' expectations and ours. Felton will play through almost anything he can, but the ankle may limit what he's able to do in terms of his mobility on Saturday.
May 17 - 1:26 PM

Raymond Felton was limping in post-game interviews due to ankle soreness but said he expects to play on Saturday.

He did not practice on May 9 due to left ankle soreness. "My ankle is sore but I'll be fine for Saturday," Felton said. He didn't really show much signs of his ankle bothering him during the game and it didn't look like he aggravated it on a specific play. Anyone that has played on an ankle that is less than 100 percent can probably put themselves in Felton's shoes and we're not expecting any limitations on Felton for Game 6.
May 16 - 11:52 PM

Raymond Felton played well in Thursday's victory to cut the series deficit to 3-2, scoring 12 points with five boards, four assists and no turnovers in 37 minutes.

He had some success against the undersized D.J. Augustin and even pulled down four offensive boards. Felton shot 6-of-14 from the field in this game, which is just a shade below his postseason field goal shooting of 46.8 percent. Felton's improved play has gone a long way with the struggles of Jason Kidd. Kidd hasn't made any of his 13 field goal attempts in May and has no points in that span. Felton could be a bigger part of the game plan on Saturday with the possibility of Indiana being without George Hill again.
May 16 - 11:22 PM

Raymond Felton (ankle) finished Saturday's 82-71 loss to the Pacers with six points, two assists and two steals, while shooting 1-of-8 from the field.

Felton said before the game that his ankle was "totally fine," and his awful game wasn't the result of the injury -- the entire Knicks' offense was blanketed by the Pacers' top-ranked defense. The Knicks made an NBA-record 894 three-pointers during the 2012-13 regular season (most since the stat was introduced in 1979) but they finished Saturday's loss just 3-of-11 from beyond the arc.
May 11 - 11:19 PM

Raymond Felton's sore left ankle is "totally fine," and he'll start Game 3 as expected.

Felton is "100 % healthy," so despite his absence from practice on Thursday, Felton will be at full strength going into Saturday's Game 3 vs. Indiana. Fantasy owners in playoff formats should start him as they normally would.
May 10 - 1:18 PM

Raymond Felton (ankle, personal) did not practice on Thursday, but he's expected to return on Friday.

Felton's been dealing with a sore left ankle after Game 2, and although he's missing the practice for personal reasons, it's entirely possible his ankle is still an issue. We should get at least a couple of additional updates on Felton before Saturday's Game 3, but his absence would leave Pablo Prigioni and Jason Kidd to play extended minutes.
May 9 - 11:54 AM

Raymond Felton is dealing with a sore left ankle.

Felton is confident he'll be fine for Game 3 on Saturday, but we're marking him sidelined as a precaution. He walked around the locker room with a "noticeable limp," and Felton said that he "tweaked it a little bit, but I'm all right." We should get multiple updates on his condition between now and Saturday.
May 8 - 9:04 AM

Raymond Felton had 14 points, two 3-pointers and three assists on 5-of-9 shooting before tweaking his ankle in Tuesday's win over the Pacers.

He waved off trainers when they wanted to look at it, so we're guessing it's not an injury to worry about. And the fact the Knicks are off until Saturday means we're going to leave him off the injury report for now.
May 7 - 11:26 PM

Raymond Felton continued his strong play in Game 1's loss to the Pacers with 18 points, two boards, three assists and one 3-pointer on 8-of-12 shooting.

He shot 46.9 percent against the Celtics and his contributions may have been necessary for New York to advance to the second round. Felton was a little slow with rotations on defense and the Knicks gave up eight 3-pointers compared to their seven. The Knicks had just 15 assists in the loss and they may need to have a better team game to crack Indy's stout defense.
May 5 - 6:44 PM

Raymond Felton said that Jordan Crawford's postgame trash talk was "just some words, nothing serious."

The postgame "scuffle" will get blown up to create controversy, but it wasn't really what it's being made out to be. Regardless, this will be extra fuel for the fire as the two teams will go head-to-head once again in Boston on Friday.
May 2 - 8:21 AM

Raymond Felton was a bright spot in New York's Game 5 92-86 loss to the Celtics, shooting 10-of-19 from the field for 21 points with six boards, four assists and three turnovers in 44 minutes.

He's been the most consistent player for the Knicks in this series and has shot 50.7 percent in the last four games. Felton also hasn't turned the ball over more than three times in any of the five games, so it's encouraging to seee he's not being careless either. With Carmelo Anthony in a mini slump, Felton could have more responsibility in Game 6 on Friday.
May 1 - 10:04 PM

Rayomd Felton was terrific in Sunday's loss to the Celtics with 27 points, four boards, three assists, three steals and three 3-pointers in 48 minutes.

He had 16 points in the third quarter and the Knicks were able to climb back into this game, outscoring Boston 30-14 in that quarter. Felton is having a solid postseason and he's been a bit unappreciated with Carmelo Anthony and J.R. Smith stealing the spotlight. He'll look to carry his momentum on Wednesday in Game 5. Iman Shumpert was also productive to help fill the void left by J.R. Smith's suspension, scoring 12 points with 12 boards, two steals and two blocks in 44 minutes. Smith will be back on Wednesday, but this game may have helped Shump's confidence.
Apr 28 - 5:13 PM

Raymond Felton could find himself playing heavy minutes in the playoffs due to a severe ankle sprain for Pablo Prigioni.

The Knicks will also be able to use Jason Kidd in the playoffs, but would obviously like to have Prigioni available. Felton didn't play on Wednesday, but was simply resting and avoiding injury.
Apr 18 - 12:27 AM

Pablo Prigioni will start for the Knicks against the Hawks on Wednesday and Raymond Felton will likely rest.

That will give the Knicks a starting five of Prigioni, Iman Shumpert, James White, Chris Copeland and Earl Barron to go up against Atlanta's starting five of Shelvin Mack, John Jenkins, DeShawn Stevenson, Anthony Tolliver and Ivan Johnson. Get your popcorn ready, folks. Prigioni is a decent play with New York resting Felton and Jason Kidd.
