Mitchell Robinson starting for Knicks Friday night; Nerlens Noel back to bench
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson will start Friday in the team's game against the Phoenix Suns.
What It Means:
Robinson has been in the concussion protocol for nearly a week, but he's returning to the court Friday night. He's also returning to the starting lineup, reclaiming his spot at center to face off against Deandre Ayton. In a corresponding move, Nerlens Noel will revert to a bench role.
Our models project Robinson for 7.1 points, 7.4 rebounds and 22.1 FanDuel points across 24.7 minutes of action.
