New York, NY — Knicks center Mitchell Robinson practiced in full on Thursday and will be a game-time decision for Friday night’s matchup in Chicago, head coach Mike Brown told reporters. The 27-year-old has missed New York’s first four games while the club manages his left-ankle workload following offseason surgery.
Robinson did not play last season until Feb. 28 and appeared in just 17 regular-season contests before logging time in 18 playoff games.
Oklahoma City, OK — Thunder wing Isaiah Joe is available for his season debut Thursday against Washington, according to the team. Joe, who averaged a career-best 21.7 minutes over 74 games in 2024-25, had been sidelined by a left knee contusion.
Cleveland, OH — Cavaliers guard Darius Garland has no practice restrictions following toe surgery and is taking part in scrimmages, a league source said. Cleveland is proceeding cautiously, but a return in the first half of November remains realistic for the two-time All-Star.
Salt Lake City, UT — The Jazz cleared second-year point guard Isaiah Collier for full on-court work and will assign him to the G League on Friday to rebuild conditioning. Collier has been out with a right hamstring strain.
Philadelphia, PA — Sixers forward Dominick Barlow will miss at least two more games as he recovers from a right elbow laceration, the team announced. After starting Philadelphia’s first two contests, he sat out the past two and will be reevaluated early next week, ruling him out against Boston on Friday and Brooklyn on Sunday.
