Mitchell Robinson (New York Knicks)
September 2025
Knicks big man Mitchell Robinson is eligible for a veteran extension as his four-year, $60m contract enters its final season. Despite injuries limiting his minutes, his dominant postseason defense elevated his value as New York eyes its championship window.
Robinson missed much of last year but proved decisive in the playoffs, shoring up defense while Karl-Anthony Towns handled scoring. Knicks insider James L. Edwards III claims Robinson is “an All-Defense candidate” worth keeping, with the front office weighing long-term security despite durability concerns.
