Miami Heat's Duncan Robinson Back In The Fold After Finger Surgery

Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson was back in the lineup for the first time in more than six weeks Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets.

He was sidelined after undergoing finger surgery.

"I felt pretty good, honestly, probably better than it looked," Robinson said. "I knew there was going to be a little bit of stretch just to kind of get legs back underneath me. I made sure I was ramping up leading up to [Wednesday]."

Robinson had six points on 2 of 7 shooting and three rebounds.

"The reality of it, it doesn't get better for a while, completely better," Robinson said. "It's repaired, that's what's most important. It's definitely enough to be out there and be effective."

He said he expects the pain to linger until it fully heals.

"That's not going to go anywhere any time soon," Robinson said. "That was one of the things I knew when I elected to do the procedure, that there was going to be pain but it's significantly less than it was before. It functions better than it was before."
