Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson has experienced a roller coaster ride in the NBA over the past two seasons. From being a regular starter, he found himself coming off the bench due to inconsistency. However, with the Heat facing injury challenges, Robinson has once again found himself in a prominent role.
Robinson showcased his talent in Wednesday's victory against the Philadelphia 76ers, scoring 20 points, including five 3-pointers, and dishing out four assists. This performance came at a crucial time, as it was the Heat's final game before the NBA All-Star break.
"He's been fantastic with his shooting, with his movement, creating overreactions," praised Heat coach Erik Spoelstra. "He's basically been doing it all."
Robinson has stepped up in the absence of key players like Josh Richardson, Jimmy Butler, and Terry Rozier, who are sidelined due to injuries. Over the last two games, he has averaged 21.5 points, providing much-needed scoring punch for the team.
In addition to his offensive contributions, Robinson has also made an impact on the defensive end. Against both the Sixers and the Milwaukee Bucks, he recorded three steals and a block.
"Defensively, he's been so disciplined and detailed, whether we're in man or zone," noted Spoelstra. "He's been making great progress there. Whenever Duncan Robinson is on the floor for us, our offense finds a way to look better."
