After the Knicks got dismantled at Cleveland and Boston in their past two games, it was apparent they missed Mitchell Robinson’s defensive presence.

The New York Knicks are getting center Mitchell Robinson back, and his return couldn't have come at a better time.

Robinson has had to be patient. Luckily, the Knicks have been able to reel off a 36-18 record before the all-star break, so he’ll be entering into a good situation. Robinson wanted to avoid the “dumb” mistake of returning to early and having a setback.
