Mike Brown credits country music for Mitchell Robinson’s defense on Wembanyama

Knicks head coach Mike Brown says listening to country music helped Mitchell Robinson guard Victor Wembanyama more effectively during the playoffs. Robinson attempted to limit Wembanyama’s drives with a 7.

1‑second defensive window. Brown noted that the country tracks playing in the locker room sharpened Robinson’s focus.

The team observed that the music provided rhythm and energy on the floor. The Knicks intend to incorporate the strategy in upcoming games.
