Robinson entered with a highly competitive mindset, aiming to maximize his development and exposure through NC State and the ACC with a “kill everyone” mentality.

His summer return included the final two Nike EYBL sessions for Jet Academy, where he drew strong interest from NC State.

Robinson sees himself as a leader and competitor who can realize his dream of playing at a high level, possibly in the NBA, with the staff helping him reach that goal.

Head coach Justin Gainey emphasized building a cohesive roster around players who fit together and care about NC State, with a track record of developing mid-major talent into pros.

NC State prioritizes early talent identification and development, focusing on fit and upside over chasing high-profile early commitments.

Robinson’s addition is framed as part of a broader NC State strategy to construct a well-developed, cohesive roster under Gainey.
