Knicks’ Mitchell Robinson out vs. Thunder with latest ankle concern
NY Post
Two games into his return from December ankle surgery, Mitchell Robinson already is out of the lineup for the Knicks with an injury to the same ankle.
Robinson suffered a sprained left ankle in Friday’s loss in San Antonio, and he was ruled out for Sunday night’s last-second loss to the Thunder at the Garden.
“He just tweaked it, we’ll see where he is [on Monday],” Tom Thibodeau said before the game.
Robinson played 19 minutes off the bench Friday night after logging 12 minutes over two shifts two nights earlier in Toronto in his first appearance since Dec. 8.
With Isaiah Hartenstein fouling out, the 25-year-old Robinson played almost the entire overtime (all but 12 seconds) against the Spurs after landing awkwardly while going up for an offensive rebound in regulation.
“We’re getting right back to the action. … Come back like a champ,” Robinson said after finishing the Spurs game, while often defending rookie big man Victor Wembanyama. “Timing is off. It’s brutal. I think I was playing really well [before the injury]. Then sitting out the four months, it throws your whole timing off.
