BASK:Fingers crossed Knicks tall fit for NBA Finals opener

New York centre Mitchell Robinson had a wrap on his right hand during the open portion of the Knicks' practice on Tuesday, as the team began wrapping up preparations for Game 1 of the NBA Finals against San Antonio.

Robinson has a broken right pinkie finger, something that happened outside of a game or practice. He was dribbling and shooting in the portion of the workout that was open to reporters.

He was listed as questionable to play on the injury report that was released Tuesday (Wednesday AEST), with New York calling the injury a fractured right fifth metacarpal.

Robinson was not available to the media, which is consistent with some past instances of how the NBA has dealt with players coming off injuries going into the finals.
