Mitchell Robinson (Ankle) Is Returning After Missing 50 Games

The New York Knicks will be getting back their 25-year-old center, who has been out since December 8th and could look to assert him back into the lineup in Wednesday’s game.

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski confirmed these reports, but many fans were shocked to see his name come off the injury report. Why? New York originally filed for a disabled player exception, which the league denied, to give them more ability to find a replacement.

He was supposed to be out for the remainder of the season; however, he has healed quickly enough to play a couple of weeks before the postseason begins.

“Mitchell is moving quite well,” Thibodeau said ahead of Monday’s win over the Detroit Pistons. “He’s cleared for contact and all that. He’s going through practices and so just needs a little more time. But he’s doing really well overall.”

With Mitchell returning, the team hopes to get OG Anunoby and Julius Randle back soon as well.

Karl-Anthony Towns Has Bone Chip & Sprain In Right Thumb

According to multiple reports, the New York Knicks have discovered that Karl-Anthony Towns not only has a sprain but a bone chip in his right thumb.

His right hand is his shooting hand. There is good news, though: Towns is willing to play through the injury. This injury doesn’t require surgery during or after the season.

Towns missed Wednesday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Jericho Sims started in his absence.

According to ESPN’s Bobby Marks and Shams Charania, the New York Knicks are waiving Landry Shamet after he suffered a dislocated right shoulder.

The 27-year-old agreed to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 9 contract earlier in the offseason; many within the organization expected him to make the roster and have quality minutes. However, this injury has derailed those plans.

New York has three roster spots available; they must sign two players to meet the required 14-player roster.

When Shamet gets healthy, they will consider bringing him back.
