After the season in the playoffs against the Heat, Leon Rose will have the task of improving the Knicks in the offseason.
An Eastern Conference general manager told Heavy on Sports NBA insider Sean Deveney that the front office could, in theory, look to include big man Mitchell Robinson as an asset in a “bigger” offseason trade package.
“They’ve been testing him because he’s an old-school center type – a good rim protector and rebounder, but he doesn’t want to shoot beyond three or four feet and he’s not much of a passer. The Bulls had some interest, but it’s doubtful he would return. Dallas too, but again no pieces fit. There’s not much of a commercial market out there for him, so he’s their guy. They could move him if he’s part of a larger package, though”.
