The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Glenn Robinson with the 40th pick in the 2014 NBA Draft. He played modest roles for the Timberwolves, Philadelphia 76ers, Indiana Pacers, and Detroit Pistons before getting a bigger opportunity with an injury-depleted Golden State Warriors squad in 2019-20.

Robinson started 48 games for the Warriors, averaging 12.9 points and 4.7 rebounds while shooting 48.1% from the field, 40% from 3-point range and 85.1% at the free-throw line. He had a career-high 25 points against the Oklahoma City Thunder and later matched that total against the San Antonio Spurs. Robinson has shown a huge upside in recent years, and it is not a surprise to see NBA Rumors reveal significant interest in the player.

The Warriors traded Robinson and Alec Burks to the 76ers for three second-round draft picks in February. Robinson appeared in 14 games for Philadelphia, where he averaged 7.7 points and 3.1 rebounds. He had another 25-point game against the LA Lakers before the NBA season was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Robinson appeared in just two games during the NBA restart in the Orlando Bubble after suffering an oblique muscle strain.
