It seems that Mitchell Robinson may finally be ready to soak up more minutes for the New York Knicks.
Head coach Mike Brown has previously hinted at the possibility, without ever offering a concrete confirmation on when. Well, confirmation may have just come in the form of Robinson’s performance during the Knicks’ Sunday afternoon victory over the Orlando Magic. The 27-year-old big man racked up a little over 24.5 minutes—by far and away his season high.
Prior to Sunday, Robinson eclipsed the 20-minute benchmark just once through 14 appearances. And he never sniffed 22 total minutes.
