Mitchell Robinson will not return until at least January as he rehabs from two ankle procedures over the last year.
The New York Knicks and Robinson are adopting a cautious approach to his recovery, particularly after he was limited to just 31 games last season due to injuries.
This cautious strategy aims to ensure that he can return fully healthy, minimizing the risk of further complications.
Robinson has expressed optimism and is targeting a return in January, allowing him to contribute significantly to the team’s efforts as they push for a successful season.
In his absence, the Knicks will rely on Karl-Anthony Towns and Jericho Sims to fill the void at the center position, allowing them to showcase their skills and support the team.
Robinson, who has been an essential part of the Knicks’ defense and rebounding game, is signed through the 2025-2026 season, securing his future with the franchise.
