Wed Mar 2719:27Mitchell Robinson Returns For Knicks Wednesday
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is officially available for Wednesday's matchup against Toronto. After recovering from ankle surgery, he will make his first appearance since Dec. 8. New York's defensive anchor played a massive role at the start of the campaign, but it's likely he will return with some kind of a minutes restriction, which will limit his fantasy value on Wednesday. Robinson will eat into the minutes of Isaiah Hartenstein, who's been the Knicks' starter in the middle during his absence.

Wed Mar 2713:20Mitchell Robinson Expected To Return Against Raptors
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is expected to be active and available to play in Wednesday's matchup versus the Toronto Raptors. Upgraded to questionable on Wednesday morning, Robinson now moves to the cusp of a return following ankle surgery that's kept him out since Dec. 8. The shot-blocking big man is going to face minutes restrictions upon his return to the floor for the 43-28 Knicks, so he won't be a recommended fantasy option in season-long or DFS settings in his first game back, despite a matchup against a Raptors bunch allowing the seventh-most FanDuel points to opposing centers. Isaiah Hartenstein has filled in admirably down low in the Big Apple, averaging 8.1 points on 65.0% shooting from the field, 9.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 2.5 combined steals plus blocks over 39 starts this season, but he has the most to lose from a fantasy perspective with Robinson back in the mix.

Wed Feb 2107:21Mitchell Robinson Ditches Walking Boot
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is no longer wearing a walking boot, head coach Tom Thibodeau revealed on Tuesday. Robinson underwent surgery on his left ankle in December. Getting out of the walking boot is a positive sign of his progression, but Robinson has yet to start running, meaning it will still take time before he's ready to return to action. The Knicks big man will miss a 35th consecutive game on Thursday versus Philadelphia. Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles) has stepped up well as Robinson's understudy and is set to return from a three-game absence on Thursday.

Wed Jan 1019:02Knicks Optimistic Mitchell Robinson Can Return This Year
The NBA is denying the New York Knicks a $7.8 million Disabled Player Exception for the loss of center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) because there's optimism that Robinson can return from ankle surgery to play late in the regular season. The Knicks anticipated that Robinson would miss the rest of the year after undergoing ankle surgery as of Dec. 20, but they now hope to get back one of league's best rim protectors at some point likely around the spring. Isaiah Hartenstein has presented top-50 fantasy value in nine-category leagues during Robinson's absence, averaging 8.2 points on 64.6% shooting from the field, 10.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 3.4 combined steals plus blocks in 32.8 minutes over 16 games since Dec. 11. Robinson is suddenly worth picking up off waiver wires where he was discarded for teams that can afford the stash, but the impact of his potential return may not be felt very much in fantasy.

Thu Dec 21 202319:04Knicks Don't Expect Mitchell Robinson To Return This Year
The New York Knicks expect center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) to miss the remainder of the season after the big man recently underwent surgery on his left ankle. Robinson's absence for the rest of the year is a big blow to New York's interior defense as well as their paint scoring. The 25-year-old rim protector was enjoying a career year in rebounding with 10.3 boards (5.3 offensive) in 29.2 minutes per game over 21 starts in the Big Apple, adding 6.2 points, 1.5 steals, and 1.3 blocks. Robinson's void leaves Isaiah Hartenstein with a clear pathway to a featured role whether it be as a starter or a reserve. Hartenstein looks like a must-roster fantasy player from here on out, totaling 8.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, 2.2 swats, and 1.8 assists in 30.9 minutes per game over his last six contests. Jericho Sims (ankle) and Taj Gibson, a head coach Tom Thibodeau favorite, will help fill Robinson's gap, but the Knicks could be active at February's upcoming trade deadline.

Mon Dec 11 202315:16Knicks Announce Mitchell Robinson Will Miss 8-10 Weeks
The New York Knicks announced on Monday that center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will have left ankle surgery this week and be re-evaluated in 8-to-10 weeks. The injury held Robinson to 19 minutes in Friday's game against the Boston Celtics, and he's now set to be sidelined until the All-Star break. It's a big hit for New York's integrity down low, as the 25-year-old defensive anchor was averaging 10.3 rebounds, 1.5 steals, and 1.3 blocks in 29.2 minutes over 21 games. Robinson is also leading the NBA with 112 offensive rebounds this season. Isaiah Hartenstein is Monday's hottest waiver-wire fantasy add on Yahoo, but head coach Tom Thibodeau evenly distributed his minutes with Jericho Sims when Robinson was on the shelf last year. Over 23 games without Robinson in 2022-23, Hartenstein averaged 5.4 points, 7.8 boards, and 1.1 swats in 23.5 minutes, while Sims averaged 4.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 0.7 rejections in 23.1 minutes.

Sun Dec 10 202314:28Mitchell Robinson Needs "Additional Testing"
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) may not play in Monday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors. Per Fred Katz of The Athletic, the 25-year-old will require "additional testing" on the ankle he injured in Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics. At this point, fantasy managers are used to this sort of thing from the oft-injured center, considering he's missed his share of time over the years. Nonetheless, an official designation has yet to be made public, although it's more than possible Mitchell will miss more than just a game or two. If he does, Isaiah Hartenstein could be in line for more work. On the other hand, Jericho Sims, who started 16 times last season, could reenter the rotation. Of course, both men have a way to go before earning a spot on most fantasy rosters.

Mon Oct 16 202318:10Knicks Explored A Mitchell Robinson Trade With Trail Blazers
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has always seemed to be the odd man out when it came to the team's core. His defensive abilities have been great both on the court and for fantasy purposes, but he wasn't able to contribute that much outside of that area. The Knicks tried to flip him into Jrue Holiday according to Ian Begley of SNY. They called the Trail Blazers after they acquired Holiday, but they ultimately took the Celtics package that included Malcolm Brogdon and Robert Williams III. It was reported before that the Knicks were looking for multiple firsts in return for Robinson, so that price may be changing.

Thu May 18 202316:29Knicks Could Look To Trade Mitchell Robinson In "Bigger Package"
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson could be traded in a "bigger package," an anonymous Eastern Conference general manager has told NBA insider Sean Deveney. The Knicks allegedly aren't actively looking to trade Robinson, and he's not a very attractive piece for teams on his own, but the seven-footer could be part of a bigger offseason trade package. Robinson just finished the first season of a four-year, $60 million contract he signed with the Knicks last summer. The 25-year-old had an up-and-down campaign, averaging 7.4 points on 67 percent shooting with 9.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks.

Tue May 2 202322:41Mitchell Robinson Has Rough Night On Tuesday
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson couldn't get anything going in the Game 2 win over the Heat. He finished with only six points and five rebounds, logging just 21 minutes. Even worse, he went 2-for-6 from behind the charity stripe. Mitchell has struggled offensively during this series, averaging 6.5 points while sinking a laughable 30% of his tries from the free throw line. At this rate, DFS managers should think twice before putting him into the lineup on Saturday for Game 3.

LeBron James Injury Update

James injured his right foot during the third quarter of Sunday's comeback win over the Dallas Mavericks. It was a tense few seconds after the multi-time MVP clutched his foot after suffering what was deemed a "non-contact injury." The concern grew to greater heights after he was overheard saying, "I heard a pop." Situations like this are never good, as many were concerned that an Achilles tear could be the culprit.https://twitter.com/FanDuelTV/status/1630602449227595777?s=20Yet, after James gathered himself, he tightened his shoe and finished the game, totaling 26 points, eight rebounds, one block, and one steal. Head coach Darvin Ham appeared optimistic while speaking postgame, stating the 38-year-old was "good."However, that couldn't be further from the case, with The Athletic's Shams Charania reporting that James would "miss an extended period of time" because of the foot injury. Charania later added that the all-time scoring leader would "require multiple opinions."https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1630363560051187712?s=20

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (thumb) hasn't played since January 18 while dealing with a fractured right thumb and he's still listed as questionable for the team's Friday night contest against the Washington Wizards.

Kyrie Irving's Season Recap

Fri Jan 27 202309:48Mitchell Robinson Will Miss At Least Four More Weeks
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (thumb) will have to miss at least four more weeks with his fractured right thumb, according to owner James Dolan. That means Robinson wouldn't be back until well after the All-Star break, around the end of February or the beginning of March. In that case, both Jericho Sims and Isaiah Hartenstein would be good waiver pickups for any fantasy managers that are in 12-team leagues or deeper. Those two will be getting the bulk of the minutes at center, while Julius Randle will likely see even more minutes moving forward.
