Crap. Hope he's okay.

We really can't afford for another player to be on the injured list...

If he misses the next game, Kidd better be ready.

Who's the next pg after Pablo? JR or melo?

NEW YORK -- New York Knicks point guard Raymond Felton underwent an MRI to determine the extend of a left hand injury he suffered late in the Knicks' 106-99 win over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.


"It's swollen right now," Felton said. "It's a lot of pain, but we'll see what happens."


Felton said, if it were up to him, he'd play in the Knicks' next game on Wednesday against the Charlotte Bobcats.

If Felton is forced to sit, the Knicks could have just one healthy point guard available against Charlotte.


Veteran guard Jason Kidd has missed the Knicks' past four games and is listed as day to day due to lower back spasms.


Kidd, 39, hopes to return to the team sometime during their three-game road trip.


With Felton injured, Pablo Prigioni is the Knicks' lone healthy point guard.


Felton hurt his hand while trying to split a double team in the fourth quarter against the Suns. He said the pain was concentrated in his thumb, which was visibly swollen after the game.


"It got jammed," he said. "It hurts."


The 28-year-old Felton has been a vital piece for the Knicks (12-4) this season.


He scored 23 points on 10-for-17 shooting against Phoenix and added a team-high seven assists.


The Knicks are 3-1 without Kidd, thanks in part to Felton's steady play.


On the season, Felton is averaging 14.6 points and 6.7 assists per game while hitting 40.7 percent of his three-point attempts.

lol You always take shots at lin givin the chance, at least your consistent :D

Felton should be able to play through it at least I hope he can

After Melo and Tyson he is our most important player. We really can't afford to lose him for any significant stretch even if Kidd was healthy.

I don't think people realize just how valauble his penetration is too our team.

Right now, yeah. He does penetrate as well as makes excellent entry passes into Melo. Something it seemed like no one could do last year. Runs a nice P&R to Chandler, and adds his own timely scoring.

When Amare comes back he might be even more important. He has to find that continuity with Amare, to make him a force again.

Any prolonged injury with Felton would be tragic.

felton tweeted, bone bruise, day to day, so not too bad thankfully
