New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson is set to miss the beginning of the 2024-25 NBA season due to an unspecified injury.
This development is a significant setback for the Knicks, as Robinson has been a key defensive anchor for the team.
The exact timeline for his return has not been confirmed, but his absence will force the Knicks to rely more heavily on backup center Isaiah Hartenstein and newly acquired talent.
Robinson, known for his elite shot-blocking and rebounding abilities, played a critical role in the Knicks’ success last season, helping them secure a playoff berth.
His loss could impact the team’s defensive effectiveness, particularly in the paint. Head coach Tom Thibodeau may have to adjust his strategies until Robinson can return to full health
