Before I write another word, this disclaimer must be proclaimed. I’m not saying that New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson is an amazing NBA player; he simply had a great Summer League.
Everyone breathe.
Robinson has done enough to get minutes for the Knicks, however. If I’m head coach David Fizdale, I’m getting Robinson into elite shape so he’s ready to battle against the best in the world.
Robinson didn’t play at all at Western Kentucky last year. I assume his camp decided that sitting out was more beneficial for his growth. Probably not the right move, but who am I to judge.
