The Nets just signed Thomas Robinson, but the bad news didn't take quickly to follow.

From ever brilliant Fred Katz of Bleacher Report and FOX Sports:

There is no timetable on Robinson's return for now, but arthroscopic surgery on the meniscus can have a quick recovery, depending on the severity of the injury.

If Robinson can't go at the start of the year, this hurts the Nets' depth not only in terms of Robinson, but also in other aspects. Brooklyn just waived Cory Jefferson Monday, as predicted since his contract would have been fully guaranteed had he lasted on the roster until later in the week.
