Summary:
Liam Robbins is a strong, mobile big man that has versatile scoring skills, and he played well at Minnesota and Vanderbilt during his collegiate career. He is a tall center that can shoot it from deep and is a very good shot blocker. On the other hand, his less than ideal athleticism and advanced age may limit his ceiling as a draft prospect for the league. He’s flown under the radar as a draft prospect, but his ability to shoot, score, and block shots could enable him to thrive as a role player in the NBA.
