As a result, Robinson will need to fight for a roster spot on the Warriors in training camp. Nonetheless, should the guard make the team for the 2022-23 NBA season, he could receive minutes to contribute off the bench.

Robinson spent the 2021-22 NBA season with the NBA G League Santa Cruz Warriors, averaging 20.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.8 assists over 22 games.
