Mitchell Robinson’s agent cost himself a job with pre-draft ploy

LAS VEGAS — Mitchell Robinson is certainly acting the part of an NBA player now.

According to league sources, Robinson, the Knicks’ 20-year-old project center who dazzled the Las Vegas summer league, has made an agent change already.

Sources indicate Robinson, a Chalmette, La. product, has moved on from agent Raymond Brothers and has inked John Spencer, who also reps Lance Thomas. Spencer is a former Knicks scout under Ernie Grunfeld.

The move comes after signing his first contract last weekend — a four-year deal for $6.4 million with a team option after both the second season and third seasons.
