Knicks C Robinson fractures right hand vs. Wiz

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson suffered a fractured right hand during Friday night's 109-91 win over the Wizards in Washington, D.C., the team announced.

Robinson was dominant in the first half, finishing with 10 points, 14 rebounds, an assist and two steals while going 5-for-6 from the field. It wasn't clear when Robinson injured his hand, though he was grabbing at it after the buzzer sounded to end the second quarter.

A short time later, the Knicks announced Robinson wouldn't return to the game. The fracture was announced at the end of the third quarter, and the team said he would be reevaluated Saturday in New York.

Robinson, 22, entered Friday's game averaging 8.4 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.6 blocks in a career-high 29.6 minutes per game for the Knicks, having firmly entrenched himself as the team's starting center under new coach Tom Thibodeau. After Nerlens Noel, who presumably will take Robinson's spot in the starting five, started in the preseason, Thibodeau made him the starter to begin the year, and Robinson started all 27 games the Knicks have played this season en route to a 12-15 record.

The Knicks have an option on his contract for next season that they can either exercise, keeping him under contract for $1.8 million, which would make him an unrestricted free agent after the 2021-22 season, or decline and make him a restricted free agent after this season.
