The New York Knicks have missed Al Harrington’s scoring over the past two games. They also could use his big body in the post.

Losers of three straight, the Knicks hope to have Harrington back Wednesday night as they try to avenge last week’s loss to the Washington Wizards.

Harrington, second on the team with 17.9 points per game, has been nursing a knee injury. New York (18-29) shot 42.2 percent in the two games the veteran forward missed — road losses to Washington and Minnesota.

Though Harrington has never been a premier rebounder, his absence may be hurting the Knicks on the glass. New York was outrebounded 58-36 in a 112-91 loss to the Timberwolves on Sunday night after a 59-40 deficit in a 106-96 defeat to the Wizards (16-31) the previous evening.

Harrington is averaging 5.8 rebounds this season, and for his career, lower than what was perhaps expected when he entered the league in 1998. However, the 6-foot-9, 250-pound veteran forward can help free up teammate David Lee, who is posting 11.5 rebounds a contest.

Washington’s Antawn Jamison, meanwhile, had a career-high 23 rebounds versus the Knicks last week, and Brendan Haywood added 10. That will be a tough matchup for the Knicks again — with or without Harrington — as they try to avoid a third straight loss to the Wizards.
