Mark Burnett, a San Antonio Spurs super fan who runs the “Spurs Sixth Man” accounts on Instagram and Facebook, said he has been hearing from season ticketholders whose privileges were recently revoked or suspended. "This official notice started hitting inboxes just after noon on July 8," Burnett said in a social media post last week.

New Boston Celtics big man Mitchell Robinson addressed the hand injury that put his status for the start of the New York Knicks' NBA Finals appearance in doubt, saying he was hurt after reacting to a family member being in a car crash. In a Facebook post Sunday morning, Robinson outlined a difficult season for him due to "personal issues, relationship problems, and internal struggles, which affected my performance on the basketball court." He said that culminated in hearing that his youngest brother had been in a car crash that included potentially severe or life-threatening injuries. "Being 910 miles away, I felt helpless. In a moment of frustration, I banged my hand on my truck," Robinson wrote. "... Before judging someone, it is essential to understand their circumstances, which may not be publicly known. Life is unpredictable, and it is how we respond to challenges that truly matters."
Mitchell Robinson plans to reveal a whole new version of himself. “Last post before I delete this app,” Robinson wrote on Facebook on Thursday afternoon, just a few hours before Game 2. “I finally have changed my number for many reason [sic] … as I fight through and keep fighting in this playoffs run my focus have to go to another level. This is the start of a new chapter in my life. Love and will miss y’all … Mitch out.”
Pablo Torre: “I believe that one of the more overlooked aspects of our collaboration with Wired is that MSG security boss John Eversole, according to his own Facebook photos that we found, is a cat person — or at least a cat-with-hot-pink-paw-covers-on-a-handgun person — and also that his boss, Knicks and Rangers owner James Dolan, has such, quote, ‘disdain for dogs,’ according to a sworn affirmation by a former VP of MSG Security in a civil lawsuit against Eversole and Dolan’s company, that Eversole allegedly kept K-9 bomb-sniffing dogs away from Dolan when he was walking around the Garden.” “Which brings us now to all-time Rangers great Adam Graves in this team video from 2018.”
Knicks center Mitchell Robinson opened up about his mental health after he and Hawks guard Dyson Daniels were both ejected for fighting in Game 6 of their first-round playoff series Thursday night. “Knew something was gone happen,” Robinson wrote in a Facebook post after the Knicks’ 140-89 series-clinching win — and the largest win in a playoff game in franchise history. “My mental just not the same I’m just lost in the world at the moment.” Robinson also reshared his pregame post that said, “Trying so hard to be calm.”

Nikola Jokic: “One great thing for a young player is that it’s very important to have someone who can show him the way. And even now in the NBA I think those people are missing… Veterans. Veterans. And those players, especially in Mega, you always had someone like Novica Veličković. I absolutely adored him. I even remember on Facebook when Maccabi beat Partizan. That was when Novica was playing. I was really rooting for Novica. Not for any particular team, not before and not now. I was for Novica at that time.”
