New York Knicks big man Mitchell Robinson III is seeking help with a very serious matter.

On Sunday, Feb. 13, the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office in Pensacola, Fla., issued a press release seeking help in locating a missing endangered adult. The man, 39-year-old Mitchell Robinson Jr., was last seen on Feb. 11. Robinson III shared the post on social media Monday and wrote “my dad is missing.” He included a phone number to call if anyone has information.

The circumstances surrounding Robinson Jr.’s disappearance are unclear.

Robinson III is in his fourth season with the Knicks. He is averaging 8.4 points and 8.7 rebounds per game. The 7-foot center was drafted by New York in the second round back in 2018.

Here’s hoping everything turns out well for the Robinson family.
