A New York Knicks insider gave a huge update on Mitchell Robinson's return timelines but also a replacement option on the team's radar.

The New York Knicks must decide what to do with Mitchell Robinson before the Feb. 6 trade deadline. The organization may send the injured 7-foot center to the Los Angeles Lakes in an intriguing deal.

The Knicks likewise have an incomplete frontcourt as long as Mitchell Robinson remains sidelined, while New York, remember, has already gauged Robinson’s trade value dating back to this time last season when NBA personnel flocked to Orlando for this same G League Showcase that begins Thursday.

The New York Knicks have been a hot topic for the last ten days, amidst their first skid in months. Losers of five of their last seven contests, all the good vibes from the nine-game winning streak that preceded have evaporated.
