According to The Arizona Republic reporter Duane Rankin, the big five-side player of the University of Kentucky, Jaxson Robinson, did not arrange too many trials for himself, resulting in his reimbursement of wrist injuries in the season that had to reduce his schedule. Rankin said Robinson has completed trials for the Sacramento Kings and the Golden State Warriors, and he will visit four more teams in the future, one of which is the Phoenix Suns.

Robinson was born in December 2002 and is a 22-year-old small forward with outstanding projection ability. According to data from the joint trial physical test session before last year's NBA Draft, Robinson's bare foot height was 194.9cm, his wingspan was 211.5cm, his standing height was 261.6cm, and his weight was 85.5kg. In the NCAA field this season, Robinson transferred from Brigham Young to join the University of Kentucky. He made a total of 24 appearances in the NCAA field this season, averaging 27.9 minutes of playing time, averaging 13 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.5 blocks, and 0.9 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. He shot 43.2%, three-point shooting percentage 37.6%, and free throw shooting percentage 76.3%. Due to injuries, his season ended early.

From the perspective of characteristics, Robinson is a player with good scoring ability. He has good shooting ability and ball movement ability, which also determines that he has the opportunity to become an excellent pitcher. Robinson also has certain passing and support abilities, and his performance on the defensive end is also quite standard. However, Robinson's performance in possession of the ball is not ideal. His ability to control the dribble is relatively limited, and he may find it difficult to assume more responsibilities on the defensive end. The most important thing is that Robinson is obviously older, and after transferring to join the University of Kentucky this season, he has not improved in data at all, and even showed some declines compared to last season, which will make everyone feel a little worried about his potential and future development.

Judging from the current situation, Robinson has a certain chance to be selected in the second round, but he may also end up as a undraft. For Robinson, the worse situation is that Robinson is unable to complete trial training for more teams due to injury, which will also lead to greater doubts about his ability. In the next NBA draft, the Warriors held the No. 41 draw in the second round, the Kings held the No. 42 draw in the second round, and the Suns held the No. 52 draw in the second round. These draws were somewhat consistent with Robinson's market. I don’t know how Robinson was in the trial, can he be successfully shortlisted in the draft?
