New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has a broken right pinkie finger and there is no timetable for his return, a person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Thursday because the team had not announced the injury.
The Knicks are set to play Game 1 of the NBA Finals next Wednesday against either Oklahoma City or San Antonio.
Robinson appeared in 13 of New York's first 16 games through the first three rounds of the playoffs.
That includes more than 17 minutes off the bench in the Eastern Conference finals-clinching victory at Cleveland.
The Knicks returned to practice at home on Thursday.
