Mitchell Robinson’s postseason over in crushing Knicks injury blow
NY Post
The already shorthanded Knicks lost another one.
Mitchell Robinson, the backup center with perpetual injury problems, suffered a setback to his surgically repaired left ankle and his playoffs are finished.
The center underwent testing Tuesday afternoon that uncovered a “stress injury” and he’ll be re-evaluated in six to eight weeks, the Knicks announced.
A second surgery is unnecessary, a source said, but he won’t return even if the Knicks advance to the Finals.
“This is so f–ked up dawg like I don’t even know what to say,” Robinson wrote on X after the news broke. “This is not over! I WILL SEEK REVENGE.”
It’s unclear what Robinson was referencing with “REVENGE” but it’s possibly Joel Embiid, who seemed to aggravate the Knicks center’s ankle during a physical battle in Game 3 of the first round.
