Mitchell Robinson stood on business.

After downplaying the Wembanyama matchup by stating that he’s not worried it’s an archetype of player that he has faced before (Porzingis, Bol Bol), Mitchell Robinson stuck to his word and held Victor to 0-6 shooting as his primary defender. The most anyone has shot on Mitch this season without making a FG.

Mitchell Robinson has been the Knicks best player this season and is the major reason the Knicks have had a top 2 defense to start the year.

If he keeps it up so you think Mitchell Robinson could get DPOY consideration?

Mitchell used his bigger, stronger body to great effect on D. Wemby isn't at the stage yet where he simply shoots over everyone.

Wemby’s release point is much lower and easier to block than Jokic. Jokic’s shot is pretty much unblockable (except maybe by Wemby?)
