Robinson won't play in Friday's game against the Hawks due to left ankle injury management, per Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com.
Friday will be a third straight outing on the shelf for Robinson. It's unclear if the Knicks plan to have the big man available for the second part of their back-to-back set Saturday against the 76ers. Ariel Hukporti should take on more playing time Friday, though he'd likely need Karl-Anthony Towns (illness) to sit out as well in order to see a significant boost in fantasy appeal.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Won't start Christmas Day

Robinson is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Double-doubles with three stocks
Rotowire
Robinson produced 21 points (7-8 FG, 7-8 FT), 16 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 26 minutes during Friday's 116-107 loss to the 76ers.
Robinson recorded his first double-digit scoring game of the year, and it was also the first time this season he's hit consecutive free throws, which had the New York crowd going wild. However, with averages of 4.6 points, 8.7 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game on the season, Mitchell can only be viewed as a shot-blocking and rebounding specialist in deep leagues.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Sitting out Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (ankle) won't play in Thursday's game against the Pacers, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
Thursday is the first part of a back-to-back, so the Knicks are opting to hold Robinson out for left ankle injury management. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is also sidelined Thursday, which leaves New York in position to experiment with small-ball lineups. In terms of a potential streaming option, Guerschon Yabusele stands out as the most likely candidate to soak up the lion's share of the center minutes.

Robinson (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Pacers.
With Thursday being the first half of a back-to-back, the Knicks are considering keeping Robinson out for left ankle injury management. Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is also uncertain for Thursday, meaning New York could end up having a timeshare at center between Ariel Hukporti and Guerschon Yabusele.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Modest effort again Tuesday
Rotowire
Robinson produced two points (2-8 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Tuesday's 117-101 victory over the Raptors.
Robinson shifted back to the bench with Karl-Anthony Towns returning from a one-game absence due to calf tightness. After being a regular fixture in the starting lineup to begin the season, it appears as though New York has gone away from the idea of playing two bigs, instead opting to play Robinson as the backup behind Towns. Through 16 games, Robinson has averaged 8.2 rebounds and 0.9 blocks in 17.5 minutes per contest, making him nothing more than a streaming option in standard formats.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Makes impact on glass in spot start
Rotowire
Robinson logged six points (3-4 FG), 13 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Sunday's 106-100 win over the Magic.
Getting the start in place of Karl-Anthony Towns (calf), Robinson didn't supply much offense but did pull down double-digit boards for the sixth time this season while playing a season high in minutes. Towns could be back in the lineup as soon as Tuesday against the Raptors, but Robinson has shown he can make a splash on the glass regardless of his role.

Knicks' Mitchell Robinson: Muted impact in loss
Rotowire
Robinson provided one point (1-4 FT) and five rebounds over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 123-117 loss to the Celtics.
Robinson was purposefully sent to the charity stripe twice in the first quarter, with the Celtics taking advantage of his struggles at the line. He ultimately finished the game with fewer than three points for the third time in his last four appearances. The big man has come off the bench in four straight games, and he hasn't offered much from a fantasy perspective outside of his rebounding.

Rotowire
Robinson (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against Brooklyn, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
Robinson was a late addition to the injury report, presumably after waking up under the weather. He has been playing a very small role in the frontcourt thus far, averaging 16.8 minutes across eight November appearances. If he's unable to give it a go, the Knicks could turn to Guerschon Yabusele and possibly Ariel Hukporti.
