Mitchell Robinson of the New York Knicks gained significant attention after his air-balled free throw during a critical moment in a playoff game against the Boston Celtics. TNT analyst Reggie Miller had predicted the miss due to Robinson's poor free throw percentage. The shock of the air-ball prompted a flurry of reactions on social media, with many users commenting on how rare and comical the miss was. Despite the embarrassing moment, Robinson played a key role in the Knicks' impressive comeback victory, which showcased his resilience and skill beyond the mishap.
In a bit of unintended foreshadowing, TNT analyst and NBA legend Reggie Miller noted that the Celtics should have wrapped up Robinson on the foul to ensure he couldn't get the shot up.
Robinson ultimately got the last laugh, as he played an instrumental role in the Knicks' 20-point comeback against the defending champions.
