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?

I'm so used to him hacking from previous years that I still feel like teams should try to draw fouls on him to get him out of there. But he's not nearly as prone to them s he used to be

He's honestly one of the least foul prone centers for his play style at this point. Almost never bites on pump fakes.

Playing almost 30 MPG and averaging a career low 2.3 FPG. He's become the complete force on defense he always had the potential to become.
