Mitchell Robinson broke his right pinky and has no announced timetable for return, creating uncertainty for New York’s preparations for its first NBA Finals appearance since 1999. Robinson played 60 regular-season games, averaging 19.6 minutes, 5.7 points, and 8.8 rebounds, including about four offensive rebounds per game. His offensive-glass production has been treated as a defining part of the Knicks’ identity this season. A compromised hand could reduce effectiveness on catches, tip-ins, and finishing through contact. Opponents have used intentional fouling to target his free-throw struggles, with his free-throw percentage reported as below league average. If he is limited, New York may increase reliance on Ariel Hukporti, who logged 498 regular-season minutes and spot starts this year.
