2. Devin Robinson (Florida) – Washington Wizards

At 6’8″ with a near-seven-foot wingspan, Devin Robinson has even more size than Charles Cooke. Like Cooke, he resembles an undervalued wing with two-way potential. Age just happens to get in the way.

Robinson was a three-year player at Florida, but is already 22, thus part of the reason he declared. After two productive years, Robinson became more productive in year three. This past season he averaged 11.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, and shot 39 percent from three. His 72.3 percentage at the free throw line seems to back up his shot.

For the Washington Wizards, or any other NBA team, he has the potential to play the 2, 3 or 4, and knock down the three. Teams will be wary that he shot under 35 percent from three in years one and two. That being said, as a sophomore he shot nearly 77 percent from the free throw line.

As a junior, he posted a 4.7 defensive box plus-minus, higher than what Michael Kidd-Gilchrist averaged at Kentucky. There’s legitimate upside to be a great wing off the bench if someone believes in his shot. Again, age is a huge factor with him. Players with his size and potential shooting the ball deserve a shot at being on an NBA roster.
