From Tim Bontemps (is Bontemps their new Woj? I don’t dislike Bontemps, I’m just curious):
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson will miss the beginning of the regular season after offseason ankle surgery, league sources confirmed to ESPN, leaving an already thin center spot even thinner.
Robinson, who played 31 games last season and underwent ankle surgery in December, again hurt a foot/ankle during New York’s first-round playoff series against the Philadelphia 76ers and missed the final six games of the second-round series against the Indiana Pacers.
The Knicks are targeting Robinson to return in December or January, sources said, though the timing will be dictated by his rehabilitation process.
