The New York Knicks are expected to waive center Drew Eubanks after he sustains a torn pectoral muscle, creating a major frontcourt setback ahead of the NBA season. The injury news comes as the team continues final roster decisions.
Multiple outlets frame the move as part of an ongoing roster trimming process. Newsweek highlights the potential impact on the Knicks’ frontcourt depth, while the New York Post and Yahoo Sports describe the waiver as effectively ending Eubanks’ bid for a remaining roster spot. The outlets differ mainly in emphasis—one focusing on the injury’s effect and the others on how it alters the team’s competition for places on the roster—but they agree on the core points: Eubanks is injured, the Knicks move to waive him, and roster reshaping continues.
The Knicks’ next steps and any replacements are not detailed in the provided reports.
