Robinson has always been able to drop it from deep, and her “stop and pop” is one of the best in the state right now, but I also enjoyed seeing her court vision in transition shoot up as she threaded the needle in traffic from 20-plus feet multiple times for assists. Her “on the ball” pressure, coupled with quick hands, created turnover, so did her playing “the passing lane”

Robinson sold me, I guess, in 3rd grade, with her mannerisms and mindset playing against older players, so I knew she would make an immediate impact and become one of the top players in the state. She is also one of the top “long ball threats” with an unlimited range to complement her quick release. Additionally, she excels at both passing lane defense and “on the ball” defense, and yes, she even picks pockets. She also has good court vision, entry passes were perfect, so add the “stop and pop” and “catch and shoot” to the equation

Robinson is a “long and athletic” guard which is also the base and watching her create her shot, elevate and drop it however she wants had me smiling. Peep this, she played the passing lane and pulled up and dropped the 3 with the stop and pop, back to back, to help her team go on a deep run, but her consistently showing she can score and defend speaks volumes

Robinson is yet another “long and athletic” guard, and her range is unlimited, which is scary, not for me, but for defenders, because she can create and elevate from NBA range. To make things more difficult, she’s explosive off the dribble and finishes strongly after contact. Her “on the ball” pressure was solid, and she came away with clean steals using her quick hands.

Robinson has already made Tip Sheets galore from me. See the evaluations here. I just spoke about high ceilings; her ceiling has no roof. When you’re “long and athletic guard,” which is the base and elevates on her jumper, you’re ahead of the game, yet being able to score from mid to long-range and off the dribble, playing against older players, you’re way ahead, so where she lands won’t surprise me because her mindset is ahead of her years

Robinson is a “long and athletic” guard, that too is the base, and let me say this, her first step creates some problems as she can get to the rim however she wants but staying with her first step, she’s showing the step back to keep the defender guessing so getting her shot off with ease looked good, yes she elevates on her jumper but her mid to log-range continues to impress me. She saw the floor, played the passing lane and blocked shots

Robinson has made a few of my Tip Sheets see evaluation here but here’s a big TIP for defenders, pick her up as soon as she crosses half-court, you heard me because she has the potential right now to set some long ball records. She effortlessly drops it from NBA range yet she’s a long and athletic guard who scores off the dribble, sees the floor, and defends. She also rebounds and plays the passing lane
