PHILADELPHIA — Game 3 was too soon for OG Anunoby.
Despite the Knicks’ optimism that his injury is minor, Anunoby is out for the Knicks’ clash against the 76ers on Friday night at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
He was listed as questionable heading into the game.
Anunoby suffered a right hamstring strain during the Knicks’ 108-102 Game 2 win on Wednesday at Madison Square Garden.
But imaging revealed that it is a “very minor” strain, The Post’s Stefan Bondy reported, and he is truly day-to-day with confidence he should not miss much time.
The Knicks will have to survive at least one game without him, however.
Anunoby appeared to suffer the injury while driving to the basket during the fourth quarter of Wednesday’s game.
He began visibly limping, but remained in the game for a few plays and even attempted a dunk — though he was blocked.
He asked for a sub and came out with 2:31 left in the game, went to the locker room and did not return.
Anunoby has arguably been the Knicks’ most consistent player this postseason — he is averaging 20.3 points on stellar 61.9 percent shooting from the field and 53.8 percent shooting from 3-point range.
His defense — on Jalen Johnson and Onyeka Okongwu in the first round against the Hawks and primarily Paul George in this second-round series against the 76ers — has been superb.
His absence leaves a major hole to fill.
