Chuma Okeke

Chuma Okeke has signed a deal with the New York Knicks.

Fantasy Impact

Okeke will land with the Knicks after being unsigned for most of the offseason so far. He has spent the past few years of his career with Orlando, and while he flashed potential at times, he was never able to become a consistent producer for them. This is a good depth signing for New York, but don't expect much from him in terms of fantasy value this year.

Chuma Okeke underwent a procedure on his knee and is expected to be sidelined for at least one month.

Fantasy Impact

Okeke has been sidelined for multiple weeks now due to a knee injury, and he underwent a procedure to try to fix it. This will knock him out for a month at least, and the team will re-evaluate him at a later date. Moritz Wagner will continue to play a key role for Orlando while Okeke misses extended time.

Chuma Okeke has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks.

Fantasy Impact

Okeke last played on November 21. He has been practicing, but he still isn't able to make his return to the court in an actual game. Moritz Wagner should continue to see more playing time in his absence.

Chuma Okeke (knee) is out again for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics.

Fantasy Impact

Okeke is still managing lingering knee soreness that has forced him to miss multiple weeks. He will be out again on Sunday, and there is no indication that he'll be back anytime soon. Mortiz Wagner should continue to get more work while Okeke remains out for the foreseeable future.

Chuma Okeke (knee) won't play in Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors.

Fantasy Impact

Okeke has missed a handful of games due to a knee injury, and he will remain sidelined on Friday. The timetable for his return isn't clear, but there's some hope that he will be back in the near future. Moritz Wagner will continue to hold down the forward position for Orlando until Okeke can return.
