Free-agent center Orlando Robinson agreed to a one-year deal to join the Sacramento Kings. He spent the last two seasons with the Miami Heat. However, Robinson averaged only 3.2 points and 3.1 rebounds in 67 appearances for the team. His statistical contributions likely won't improve in Sacramento, especially with Domantas Sabonis being one of the most durable players in the National Basketball Association.
The Miami Heat have released center Orlando Robinson. The 23-year-old spent the last two seasons with the Heat, averaging only 3.2 points and 3.1 rebounds. Of course, Miami has Bam Adebayo underneath the basket. But the team bolstered their depth by adding Kel'el Ware in the draft while re-signing Thomas Bryant and Kevin Love. At any rate, Robinson will likely find a new team. However, he'll likely be a deep bench piece wherever he lands, so he's not expected to be a valuable fantasy asset in the near future.
Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) will be available Thursday versus Denver. He has been absent for the last three games with a back issue. Robinson will be an extra body to through at Nikola Jokic, but he isn't expected to see a lot of minutes. For the season, he's averaged 10.0 minutes in 24 games. On Thursday night, Robinson might see a bit more action due to the absences of Kevin Love (heel) and Thomas Bryant (suspension), but it's still unlikely that he will play a significant role.
Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Robinson appears to be back on track to play after missing the first three games since the All-Star break. It looks like Robinson will be ready for Thursday's game, but he hasn't been making a huge impact when healthy anyway. Fantasy managers can probably find a better option for Thursday's slate.
Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) has been tagged as questionable ahead of the Monday matchup against the Sacramento Kings. The 23-year-old hasn't played in the team's last two games and has been seeing very inconsistent minutes this season. The Heat could need all hands on deck Monday night, however, as they'll be missing Jimmy Butler, Thomas Bryant, and Nikola Jovic to suspensions while two more starters are listed as questionable. If Robinson can play, he might be a streaming option in deeper leagues, but that won't be known until tipoff approaches. If he's unable to play, Bam Adebayo and Kevin Love will have to split all of the minutes at center.
Orlando Robinson Dominates Summer League Action Again
Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson has produced a very impressive summer league showing this year. The 23-year-old ended Sunday's game with 27 points, nine rebounds, six assists, three steals, and one block on 10-for-15 shooting overall and two triples. Before this game, he was already averaging 25.3 points, 9.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.0 steals per game in his Vegas action. This has to be very promising for a Heat team that's trying to retain some role players while making a big trade involving Damian Lillard. Robinson could be a nice asset in deeper fantasy leagues depending on what the depth chart looks like when the season rolls around.
Miami Heat forward/center Orlando Robinson dominated against the Boston Celtics in the Summer League Saturday, scoring 36 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. The 22-year-old made three of his four attempts from deep and shot 13-for-22 overall from the field, In 33 minutes on the court, Robinson also racked up four assists and two blocks. The Fresno State product didn't see a lot of action with the Heat during his rookie campaign, but he has just secured a standard contract for himself and could get more minutes in 2023-24. Robinson has certainly played well enough in the summer to get a boost in playing time, as he has averaged 18.7 points and 8.0 rebounds in three Summer League outings.
Orlando Robinson, Jamal Cain Receive Qualifying Offers
Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson and forward Jamal Cain have both received two-way qualifying offers from the organization. Both players are restricted free agents, so doing this gives the Heat a chance to match any offers these players receive in free agency. However, it sounds like both players already intend on playing for the Heat's summer league team. Neither player had much of a role in the rotation last season. They did see some action due to injuries, but it's unlikely either player has fantasy value, assuming they stay in Miami.
