The New York Knicks will have a new starting center after Isaiah Hartenstein signed with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The New York Knicks are reacting to the unfortunate news that came Monday morning as Isaiah Hartenstein signed with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Robinson was the starting center at the beginning of the season, but an ankle injury required surgery and kept him on the sidelines for nearly four months. He returned in late March off the bench and participated in six games for the Knicks playoff run. However, in Game 1 against the Indiana Pacers, Robinson tweaked his ankle, forcing him out of the rest of the series. Robinson then opted for another surgery on the ankle.
Robinson started all but 13 of his appearances over the past three seasons before the 2023-24 campaign, so it's a role he's used to. That being said, he has expressed frustration in the past with his role, which focused more on his defense than offense. However, with a roster able to contend for the NBA Finals and several other offensive weapons on the floor, perhaps Robinson will be excited about the opportunity that could be presented in front of him.
