2014 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Glenn Robinson III


Position: Small Forward

Size: 6-7, 210

School: Michigan, Sophomore


Strengths:

Athleticism

Explosiveness

Finishing at the rim

Excels in transition

Straight-line driving ability

Quick first-step

Decent mid-range game

Defensive potential

Weaknesses:

Inconsistent outside shooter

Breaking down defenders off the bounce

Creating his own shot

Too passive on the offensive end

Aggressiveness on the boards

Hasn’t blossomed like you’d hope through two years of college

Summary: Robinson has the physical tools and attributes that a team would covet in an NBA small forward, but he failed to show much development during his two years at Michigan. The potential is still there for Robinson to become a solid player at the next level, but he figures to be a borderline first-round pick on draft night.

Player Comparison: Gerald Green. Like Robinson, Green was long, athletic and loaded with potential when he entered the NBA. However, Green had not yet fully developed his all-around offensive game, so he bounced around and eventually out and back in the league. Robinson has the physical makeup to be a solid NBA wing player, but it is going to take him some time to groom his skill set, like it did with Green.
