Rotowire
Robinson recorded 12 points (6-10 FG), 22 rebounds, two steals and two blocks across 31 minutes in Friday's 101-92 win over Indiana.
With Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) sidelined, Robinson got the starting nod for the first time since Feb. 6. The big man made the most of his season-high 31 minutes, scoring in double figures for just the third time since the All-Star break. More notably, the 27-year-old center grabbed a game- and career-best 22 rebounds, securing his fourth double-double of the season and his 20th outing with 10 or more boards. He also tallied multiple blocks and multiple steals for the fourth time this season and for the first time since Jan. 24.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Likely to sit out Sunday
Rotowire
Knicks head coach Mike Brown said that Robinson (ankle) will likely be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Bulls due to left ankle injury management, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
Robinson handled his usual role as the Knicks' backup center in Saturday's 108-106 win over the Rockets, finishing with six points (3-5 FG) and four rebounds over 17 minutes. The 27-year-old has yet to play both ends of a back-to-back set this season, and the Knicks appear to be leaning toward resting him Sunday. Assuming Robinson ends up sitting out, Ariel Hukporti will likely step in as the top backup to Karl-Anthony Towns.

The Knicks are choosing to give Robinson the night off ahead of Wednesday's clash with the Nuggets. Ariel Hukporti should move into the No. 2 center spot behind Karl-Anthony Towns, but that role is unlikely to yield enough playing time for fantasy relevance in most situations.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Cleans up glass in win
Rotowire
Robinson registered seven points (3-5 FG, 1-2 FT), 13 rebounds and two steals across 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 103-87 win over the Kings.
The 27-year-old center continues to make an impact on the glass from the second unit.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Goes for 12-and-14
Rotowire
Robinson closed Monday's 114-97 loss to Dallas with 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-2 FT), 14 rebounds and two blocks over 19 minutes.
Robinson recorded his second double-double of the season, adding a pair of blocks for good measure. It's been a frustrating season for the big man, who has been continually managed as a result of ongoing ankle issues. At this point, it doesn't appear as though he will be playing starter-level minutes anytime soon, instead serving as the backup behind Karl-Anthony Towns. At best, managers should view him as a rebounds and blocks streamer.
