The New York Knicks are withholding information about how Mitchell Robinson sustained a pinky injury that required surgery ahead of the team's first NBA Finals appearance in 27 years. Coach Mike Brown confirmed the injury did not occur during practice or Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Knicks media relations declined to provide specifics when pressed on the matter during a Friday press conference. Brown stated he knows little about the details beyond the fact that Robinson had surgery and prefers to focus only on whether the player can return for upcoming games.
