The 7-foot, 235-pound Robinson grew up in the Los Angeles area and attended Fresno State, where he played three seasons. He went undrafted in 2022 and has been carving a path to a regular NBA role through Exhibit 10 and two-way contracts.
The Heat signed Robinson to a standard NBA contract last summer, but waived him this offseason.
Now Robinson continues his NBA journey with the Kings and looks to provide depth behind centers Domantas Sabonis and Alex Len.
