1. Devin Robinson looks ready for reserve minutes next season

Devin Robinson has gone from undrafted two-way player to potential reserve after the performance he put together during Summer League. Robinson produced 19.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks per contest in his five appearances for the Wizards.

Despite their 1-4 record, Robinson dunked everything he touched and showed versatility as a rim protector for the Washington Wizards off the bench. He’ll look to carry it over into the preseason and raise his profile in the rotation.

Robinson spent most of his time last season in the G League and his development showed in Summer League. He posted two double-doubles, including 26 points and 11 rebounds against the Los Angeles Clippers last Wednesday night.

He was a highlight reel all Summer League as he showed no regard for the rim on the fast break and in the half court off the wing. Robinson showed that he may be ready for a bigger role in the Washington Wizards’ rotation after appearing in just one contest during the 2017-18 regular season.
