New York Knicks' center Mitchell Robinson underwent surgery on Monday to address the left ankle injury that forced him out of Game 1 of the team's playoff series against the Indiana Pacers. The surgery was performed following consultation with his surgeon and medical team. This information was disclosed by a source familiar with the situation who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity.
Robinson's decision to proceed with the surgery came after being sidelined last week due to a stress injury in his ankle. The current plan is for Robinson to undergo a reevaluation in six to eight weeks to assess his recovery progress.
