5. Devin Robinson, SF/PF, Florida
Florida Gators forward Devin Robinson saw his stock rise in the NCAA Tournament a bit. He used that performance to enter the draft a year early.
The 6’8″ forward spent three seasons at Florida, averaging 11.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per in his final year as a Gator. While he didn’t necessarily have stellar averages, his shooting stroke and ball-handling for his size are a few skills that are hard to ignore.
Robinson shot 47.5 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from three-point range in 2016-17. In one of his better performances of the season, he scored 24 points on the road against the LSU Tigers back on Jan. 25. He made 5-of-8 three-pointers in a 106-71 drubbing.
In the NCAA Tournament, he put up 24 points and seven rebounds in the first round opening victory over East Tennessee State. The following game, he posted a double-double (14 points, 11 rebounds) against the Virginia Cavaliers, which resulted in a 65-39 blowout.
Robinson is another player who has that magic word: versatility. He can possibly play the post or the wing in the right situation. If he can hit the three at a consistent rate, he could find a role as a floor spacer and slasher on a team like the Philadelphia 76ers.
