SNY’s John Flanigan reported on Thursday that big man Mitchell Robinson is slated to debut this weekend:

“Mitchell Robinson is expected to make his return during the Knicks’ two-game road trip this weekend against the Memphis Grizzlies and Miami Heat, sources tell SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley,” Flanigan wrote.

Robinson will likely come off the bench to start

Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau recently hinted in a press conference that Robinson could be the team’s starter at center once he retakes the floor.
