Midway through one what could have been one of the best games of his career, Mitchell Robinson broke his right hand, putting his immediate future in question, and leaving a gaping hole at center for a Knicks team that is still trying to fully find itself.
The news of Mitchell’s injury otherwise overshadowed a strong team effort, as the Knicks dismantled the Wizards, playing without Bradley Beal, 109-91, at Capital One Arena Friday.
Robinson hurt his right hand sometime in the second quarter and was pulled out of the game during halftime — thwarting what was on pace to be one of the best games of his career.
