Why has Mitchell Robinson been struggling this season?

Mitchell Robinson was expected to have a breakout sophomore season, but so far he has failed to live up to the expectations. Many, including myself, believed he was the Knick with the highest ceiling of all their young players. Improvements were expected but instead Robinson has struggled to break out.

Last year Mitchell Robinson averaged 7.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks but despite having his rookie season under him, the center’s numbers remain stagnant. Through 44 games the sophomore has averaged 9.6 points 6.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks. Overall Robinson’s number remained stagnant but the evidence is glaring.
