Kobe watches courtside as LeBron dominates

Mitchell Robinson will not return until at least January as he rehabs from two ankle procedures over the last year. Robinson and the New York Knicks will take a cautious approach in his return after he was limited to just 31 games last season. Robinson is targeting a return in January.

The Knicks will use Karl-Anthony Towns and Jericho Sims as their primary centers until Robinson returns.

Robinson is signed through the 25-26 season.
