A recent ESPN report listed a timetable for Mitchell Robinson to return as late as the end of January or into February from left ankle surgery. That was news to coach Tom Thibodeau. “I haven’t heard that,” Thibodeau said. “He’s following a protocol, going step by step and when he’s ready, he’s ready. He’s doing well, he hasn’t been cleared for practice yet. Once he gets cleared for practice, then we’ll have a better idea of a timeline. But we’re going to be patient and let him work through it. There’s a lot of steps he has to clear first.” -via New York Post / December 15, 2024
