Analysis:

Robinson's case is an interesting one, as the fifth overall pick in the 2012 draft has worked to combat the "bust" label bestowed upon him just months into his NBA career. The Kansas product played only 51 games for the Kings before being shipped to the Rockets, and he was ultimately sent to Portland, where he spent the entirety of his second NBA season. Robinson played just 12.5 minutes per game last season but was a valuable energy guy off the bench during the playoffs, flashing the rebounding and shot-blocking ability that made him a collegiate star. All signs point to Robinson holding down a similar role this season, but as a free agent in the summer of 2015, he could once again find himself searching for a new, more permanent home.
