Mitchell Robinson had just returned to action last week and had taken his role in the starting lineup Thursday night. But instead of setting himself on course to finish the season strong, he was lost again to injury.
Just 5:50 into the game Saturday night the aggressive Knicks big man jumped up over Brook Lopez to steal an entry pass. But as he came to the floor awkwardly he immediately grasped his right foot, writhing in pain. Before the Knicks could get him out of the game he attempted to block another shot, but once play stopped he was done.
