The New York Knicks were hoping to receive an answer on young center Mitchell Robinson regarding him being a long-term solution for the organization.
Last season, the 23-year-old Florida native averaged 8.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, and shot 65% from the field over just 31 games. He fractured both his hand and foot at different points in the season, minimizing his impact as the team relied on Nerlens Noel and Taj Gibson for the second half of the year.
Tom Thibodeau was hoping that Robinson would elevate his game and become a more prominent force on offense, but the lack of point guard play has contributed toward his dismal scoring production.
