League sources told The Athletic that they are under the impression that the Knicks are open to moving the oft-injured Robinson,
who will make $14.3 million this season and $12.9 million next season. The big man, who has been a defensive anchor for New York for several seasons, underwent foot surgery in May and has yet to play in a game this season. Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau said this week that Robinson is not practicing with the team and just began running and jumping. -via New York Times
