2010 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Stanley Robinson


Position: Small Forward

Size: 6-9, 225

School: Connecticut, Senior


Strengths:

Freakish athlete

Explosive as can be around the rim

Thrives when finishing in transition

Great slasher

Much improved three-point shooter

Has added strength to his previously skinny frame

Leaping ability makes him an effective rebounder on both ends of the floor

Quickness and length helps him defensively

Can guard multiple positions

Has proven he can overcome adversity



Weaknesses:

Inconsistent mid-range game

Shot selection is at times questionable

Struggles finding his touch at the free-throw line

Not a great ball-handler

Too often goes for the big block which makes him a liability at times on defense

Summary: Robinson nearly quit basketball a year ago, but fought through adversity and proved to be a very valuable contributor to UConn's Final Four team. There is no questioning his tremendous athletic ability, and with his outside shot dramatically improving, he stock has risen faster than anybody's in college basketball, as he is a serious lottery prospect.

Player Comparison: Daruis Miles. Miles came into the NBA with outstanding athletic ability and the label of a great finisher at the basket. Robinson is as athletic as anybody in the college game. Miles struggled with his perimeter game at the next level, and that will be Robinson's biggest hurdle in making the jump to the NBA.
