Overview
- Robinson posted on Snapchat that he planned to delete apps and had changed his phone number after “a very upsetting experience,” a move he made public on Saturday.
- He declined to provide details about the incident while saying his mental health “is not the best” and that he is fighting to get back on track during the Eastern Conference Finals.
- Robinson has continued to play limited reserve minutes for New York, recording modest box‑score contributions in the series and remaining in the rotation.
- Opponents have exploited his weak free‑throw shooting, using deliberate fouls (the so‑called hack‑a tactic) to limit his floor time and overall impact.
- Robinson’s step back from public channels comes as the Knicks sit two wins from the Finals, raising questions about short‑term rotation management and longer‑term support for his wellbeing.
