Knicks' Mitchell Robinson named to NBA's All-Rookie second team

There were few wins on the court for the Knicks this season, but the team can lay claim to one victory after Mitchell Robinson was named to the NBA’s All-Rookie second team Tuesday.

Robinson, one of three Knicks rookies with prominent roles as the team went with a youth movement in a 17-65 season, was the Knicks' lone representative on the squad. Kevin Knox, who was selected No. 9 overall last summer and was the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in December, was left off the team, as was undrafted free agent Allonzo Trier.

Robinson was named on three first-team ballots and 71 second-team ballots.
