What happened: New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has suffered a broken right pinky finger, according to the report cited in the context. ESPN reported there is no timetable for his return.
Why it matters: The injury lands at a critical point with New York in the NBA Finals picture. Robinson's absence would thin the Knicks' center rotation and remove a key interior option until the team provides a clearer recovery plan.
By the numbers: Robinson's injury is to his right pinky finger. NBA.com listed the Knicks as Eastern Conference champions after a sweep and an 11-game winning streak entering the Finals.
What to watch: Watch for an official Knicks injury update and whether Robinson can play through protection or needs extended time out. The next meaningful signal is a return timetable from the team or ESPN.
