What a monster pick

There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

good? bad?
Both... he might be the 2nd or 3rd best 4/5 in this draft, a great new age two way big.... or he could be out of the league in 2 years.
Sounds like the correct risk/reward ratio for a 36 pick

“The lifetime goal of mine is to play in the NBA and I feel like forgoing my year of college and going straight to work on a day to day basis will help prepare me, so I can focus just on basketball and maturing,” Robinson added.
“He’s strictly focusing on training in Dallas,” his mother told Scout. “He has another plan and it’s training.”

I wonder if we've ever seen Michell Robinson play a game? Didn't he shut down his workouts?
