Mitchell Robinsons status remains murky for Knicks as NBA Finals Game 1 creeps nearer

Monday brought status quo for Mitchell Robinson. For the second day in a row, Robinson — who is dealing with a broken right pinky — did individual work at Knicks practice Monday.Just two days before the NBA Finals begin, the Knicks remained noncommittal about his Game 1 availability. “I’m just waiting on the medical staff,” coach Mike Brown said.

“He just did individual work today.I’m waiting on the medical staff to let me know what the next step is.” Robinson’s individual work was with assistant Mark Bryant.

Robinson has been wearing a protective device on his right hand. Robinson last week had surgery for the broken right pinky.The Post’s Stefan Bondy reported that he fractured the fifth metacarpal, the bone connecting the wrist to the pinky. How Robinson suffered the injury is unknown — the Knicks aren’t giving specifics beyond that it did not occur in a game or practice. They are hopeful he will be able to play Wednesday, The Post previously reported.  Own this piece of history with our cover celebrating the Knicks sweep over the Cavs.
