Knicks draft picks show off skills in summer league loss

LAS VEGAS — The Kevin/Mitchell Show continued in full force as the Knicks’ two 2018 draft picks did their thing for a second straight summer league game despite a down-to-the-wire 90-85 loss to the Jazz.

On the day he signed his contract — a four-year deal that could be worth up to $6.4 million — 7-foot rookie center Mitchell Robinson again was a menace in the paint and racked up a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds to go with two blocks.

Not bad for a second-round pick who still is trying to round into game shape after a 14-month layoff from competitive basketball.
