New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has undergone surgery on his broken right pinkie finger and plans to play in Game 1 of the NBA Finals while wearing a brace on his hand, sources told ESPN’s Shams Charania on Friday.
It was not clear exactly when Robinson was injured, though video showed him grabbing at his right hand and shaking it going back down the court with 5:35 left in the third quarter Monday after coming down from attempting to rebound a missed shot by teammate Mikal Bridges. Robinson played off and on until 7:47 left in the fourth quarter as the Knicks completed their Eastern Conference finals sweep of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
