The beef between Mitchell Robinson and Dyson Daniels continued off the court on Thursday night after it came to blows on the court during Game 6. After the pair were ejected and the Knicks blew out the Hawks to win the series, Robinson took a shot at Daniels on Instagram.
The New York Knicks 28-year-old center was ejected alongside the Atlanta Hawks 23-year-old guard in Game 6 after the two got into a scuffle on the court. The ejection came after a Knicks free throw in the second quarter to extend their lead to a comical 50 points (72-22). Video showed Daniels elbowing Robinson in the ribs while the pair were jockeying for position on a potential rebound.
