The New York Knicks are examining two distinct moments that may have caused the injury currently threatening center Mitchell Robinson’s availability for a possible NBA Finals appearance, according to a May 29, 2026 report.
The organization has not specified which body part Robinson hurt or disclosed a recovery timetable, but team officials confirmed they are analyzing game footage to determine exactly when the setback occurred. Both plays under review happened during the Knicks’ most recent postseason matchup, the report said.
Robinson, 28, has been a pivotal interior presence for New York, averaging double-digit rebounds during the playoffs. His status remains day-to-day while medical staff conduct further evaluations.
The Knicks have not announced contingency plans should Robinson be ruled out, but head coach Tom Thibodeau said the club will “prepare for every scenario” as it awaits medical updates.
