New York Knicks Receive: Myles Turner
Indiana Pacers Receive: Mitchell Robinson, Obi Toppin, 2021 1st Round Pick (via DAL)
The New York Knicks were hoping that Mitchell Robinson would turn into a capable big man on both ends of the floor. His offensive game is flawed and he has shown an inability to stay on the floor.
Robinson’s injury woes could be a concern for the Knicks and lead them to pursue another big man. Turner is a name that should be on their radar.

Robinson would lead the return back to Indiana. The Pacers would need a replacement big man and if they are retooling, Robinson’s age would be of interest. Obi Toppin and a 2021 first-round pick from the Dallas Mavericks would complete the deal.
Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away.
