New York Knicks center and defensive menace Mitchell Robinson will be available against the San Antonio Spurs for Game 1 of the NBA Finals, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Robinson broke his right pinkie last week resulting in surgery and has since been seen with a brace around his hand.
Despite this, Robinson was brace-free in San Antonio before Wednesday’s tip-off against the Spurs. In fact, as seen in video shared by Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix, Robinson was even using his right hand to greet people courtside during his pre-game warmups.
Fans were naturally appreciative.
‘Having surgery on your hand and then choosing to go up against Wembanyama a few days later is a special kind of brave,’ one Knicks supporter wrote on X.
