Knicks Ease Mitchell Robinson’s Limits, Keep Him Under 20 Minutes in Heat Loss

Mike Brown says the center is cleared for low‑20s run under a gradual load‑management plan.

Overview

  • Robinson logged 18 minutes with 5 points and 11 rebounds in Monday’s 115-113 defeat in Miami.
  • He has now gone seven straight appearances without topping 20 minutes this season.
  • Brown said Robinson “could’ve played 27 minutes” but stuck with Guerschon Yabusele after Karl-Anthony Towns’ early foul trouble.
  • The coach acknowledged he wasted a first-half challenge, leaving New York without a review late in the close game.
  • Robinson has missed six games for load management, and some reporting linked late defensive lapses without him to the loss.
