Known forNBA player for Detroit Pistons; former Michigan Wolverines and Williams Ephs player

Duncan McBryde Robinson (born April 22, 1994) is a professional basketball athlete from the United States currently playing for the Detroit Pistons in the National Basketball Association (NBA). He began his collegiate basketball career at Williams College, competing in NCAA Division III with the Williams Ephs, before transferring to the Michigan Wolverines of NCAA Division I. Robinson played a pivotal role in guiding Williams to the championship game of the 2014 NCAA Division III men's basketball tournament and was also a member of Michigan's squad that advanced to the national title game in the 2017–18 season.

During his tenure at Michigan, Robinson led the Big Ten Conference in three-point shooting accuracy (.450) during conference matchups in the 2015–16 season, while contributing to Big Ten tournament victories in both 2017 and 2018. He was honored with the 2018 Big Ten Sixth Man of the Year award. Although undrafted in the 2018 NBA draft, Robinson signed with the Miami Heat, where he established several records for three-point shooting and was instrumental in the team's appearances in the 2020 NBA Finals and 2023 NBA Finals. Notably, he remains the sole Williams College alumnus to have played in the NBA.

Early life

Robinson was born on April 22, 1994, in York, Maine. He is the youngest among three siblings born to Elisabeth and Jeffrey Robinson. On his mother's side, he has Hawaiian heritage. Raised in New Castle, New Hampshire, he attended an elementary school where his graduating class consisted of only four students.

High school career

Robinson's early education included Rye Junior High School, after which he opted to attend The Governor's Academy in Massachusetts instead of his local Portsmouth High School. Starting as a 5 ft 7 in point guard in 2008, he developed into a competent player by his junior year through dedicated shooting drills and training under Noah LaRoche. In his senior year, he averaged 18.5 points per game and received first-team honors for both the 2012 All-NEPSAC Class B and All-ISL, graduating with a 3.55 GPA.

Following high school graduation, Robinson competed on the AAU circuit and completed a postgraduate year at Phillips Exeter Academy to enhance his college recruitment prospects. At Exeter, he led the team to a remarkable 28–1 record and secured the NEPSAC Class A championship, earning Tournament MVP and first team accolades. Playing for Michael Crotty Jr.'s Middlesex Magic AAU squad, Robinson experienced significant growth from 6 ft 6 in and 175 lbs after his senior year to 6 ft 8 in and 195 lbs by that summer.

In September 2012, Robinson accepted an offer from Williams College, a top-ranked liberal arts institution competing at Division III level. Despite leading Exeter to its inaugural NEPSAC Class A title with an MVP performance tallying 24 points and 10 rebounds, his only scholarship offer came from Division II Merrimack College. Additionally, he attracted attention from Division I programs such as Brown University and Columbia University as well as Division III schools like Bates College and Amherst College.

Williams College

Prior to their season opener on November 15, 2013 against Southern Vermont College, Williams was ranked third nationally among Division III teams according to preseason polls. Robinson distinguished himself as the sole freshman starter during head coach Maker’s six-year period at Williams. Throughout his freshman campaign in 2013–14, Robinson earned two New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Player of the Week awards. Williams advanced to the championship game of the 2014 NCAA Men's Division III basketball tournament, falling narrowly 75–73 to University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, with Robinson contributing 17 points. Notably, he had scored 30 points during the semifinals against rival Amherst College. The team concluded their season with a record of 28–5.

Robinson set multiple school records during his freshman year including total minutes played (1,110) and points scored (548). He led NESCAC in three-point shooting percentage at 44.8% as well as total minutes played (1,108), ranking second overall for minutes per game (34.6). Within conference play, he topped charts for three-point accuracy (50%) and average shots made per game (3.6). His accolades included NESCAC Rookie of the Year and Second Team All-NESCAC recognition; he became Williams’ first-ever freshman All-American (4th team by D3Hoops.com), first recipient of D3Hoops.com National Rookie of the Year from Williams, first freshman named to NCAA All-Tournament Team, and first freshman to surpass 500 points.

Following that season, head coach Maker departed Williams to take over as coach at Marist College (Marist Red Foxes men's basketball). Subsequently, Robinson received interest from numerous programs across major conferences including ACC, Big 12, Big Ten, Pac-12, as well as schools like Creighton, Boston College, and Providence. He aimed to transfer exclusively to a successful program boasting strong academics and a familiar style of play.

Having competed against Nik Stauskas during NEPSAC competition, Robinson admired Michigan coach John Beilein’s ability to develop overlooked talent like Stauskas—a former first-round NBA draft pick in 2014. Maker had previously served as Beilein’s assistant coach at West Virginia University between 2005 and 2007. Given that Robinson’s experience at Exeter and Williams involved systems similar to Michigan’s approach, Maker reached out to Beilein on his behalf. Initially regarded as a potential walk-on by Michigan staff, Robinson earned a scholarship offer after coaches reviewed his game footage. After visiting both Michigan and new Atlantic 10 member Davidson College (Davidson), he committed to Michigan on August 6, 2014 via Twitter announcement.

Sophomore season

Robinson, together with Bob McCann, was one of the uncommon athletes to move from Division III to Division I on a full scholarship. During the 2014–15 campaign, he redshirted at Michigan but impressively set a practice benchmark by sinking 78 three-pointers within five minutes.

In the following 2015–16 season, Robinson made an immediate impression, delivering a flawless 19-point performance against Elon. He established a Michigan record for three-point accuracy in an ACC-Big Ten Challenge matchup, scoring 17 points on 5-of-7 shooting from beyond the arc versus NC State. Robinson earned his first career start against Delaware State, contributing 11 points and ranking third nationally in three-point shooting percentage at that moment.

Early into conference play, Robinson led the Big Ten in both the number of three-pointers made and shooting percentage. Highlights included scoring 17 points with five triples in a victory over Maryland, posting a season-best 21 points against Nebraska where he showcased enhanced scoring inside the paint, and maintaining a streak of at least two made threes across 17 straight games. Although a brief shooting slump against Michigan State ended his streak of 22 consecutive games with a made three-pointer, he continued to contribute significantly, including nine rebounds and 14 points against Minnesota.

During the 2016 Big Ten tournament, Robinson tallied 21 points in an overtime triumph over Northwestern and played a pivotal role in upsetting top-seeded Indiana by sinking a critical late three-pointer. In the semifinals versus Purdue, he became only the fifth Wolverine to reach 90 made threes in a single season. In the NCAA tournament's First Four round, Robinson recorded his inaugural double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds during the win over Tulsa.

He concluded the season ranked second in the Big Ten for three-point field goal percentage at 45.0%, affirming his status as one of collegiate basketball’s premier perimeter shooters.

Junior season

After the previous season ended, Michigan saw key wing players depart: Caris LeVert graduated, while Aubrey Dawkins and Kameron Chatman transferred out. Robinson mainly came off the bench during this period, starting only once due to a roster oversight on December 17 against Maryland Eastern Shore. Towards the end of the season, he co-hosted The Dak and Dunc Show podcast alongside teammate Andrew Dakich on WCBN-FM Sports, which was also available via iTunes. The team went on to win the 2017 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament and reached the Sweet Sixteen round in the 2017 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.

Senior season

Robinson opened his senior year by leading the team with 21 points against North Florida on November 11, 2017. This made him one of the first Michigan players since 2015 to reach at least 20 points in a game alongside Charles Matthews. On January 13, for the rivalry matchup against Michigan State, Isaiah Livers replaced Robinson in the starting lineup. With Livers unavailable on February 11, Robinson returned to start and scored 16 points—14 of which came in the first half—in an 83–72 victory over Wisconsin. On February 14, he posted an 18-point effort including a season-high six three-pointers during a 74–59 win versus Iowa, surpassing Zack Novak to claim sixth place on Michigan’s all-time career three-point list with a total of 215.

Following regular-season play, Robinson was honored as Big Ten Sixth Man of the Year by conference coaches. In the 2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament, he played a vital role off the bench—hitting a go-ahead three-pointer and clutch free throws in overtime—to help secure a 77–71 victory over Iowa. The subsequent day, Robinson reached his milestone of 1,000 career points while contributing 16 points and four three-pointers during a 77–58 win against Nebraska. Throughout Michigan’s four games in that tournament, Robinson averaged 11 points per contest, playing an integral part in capturing the championship title.

On March 21, he received Academic All-Big Ten recognition. The Wolverines advanced to compete in the 2018 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship Game, ultimately falling to Villanova. Robinson distinguished himself as the first athlete to participate in both NCAA Division I and Division III men’s basketball championship games. He shares Michigan’s and NCAA’s record for most games played in a single season (41) alongside teammates Abdur-Rahkman, Jon Teske, Zavier Simpson, and Matthews. Over his three-year tenure at Michigan, Robinson successfully converted 237 three-pointers at an accuracy rate of 41.9%, ranking fourth all-time in program history.

2018–19 season

Following the 2018 NBA draft, where he was not selected, Robinson secured a spot with the Miami Heat through an NBA Summer League contract. Over five Summer League appearances, he averaged 12.4 points and 2.4 rebounds, shooting an impressive 58% overall and 63% from beyond the arc. On July 10, 2018, Robinson signed a two-way contract with both the Miami Heat and their G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce. His NBA debut was historically significant as he became the first former Division III athlete to play in the league since Devean George and marked the first appearance by a Williams College alumnus. Additionally, Robinson participated in The Basketball Tournament 2018 as a member of Big X, a team composed of former Big Ten players.

Opting to concentrate on his development with Miami, Robinson declined an invitation to join Team USA's G League roster for the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup qualifiers. Injuries among key Heat players opened a roster spot, allowing Robinson and fellow two-way player Yante Maten to make the opening day lineup on October 15, 2018. The Heat began the season with a full roster of 14 players under standard NBA contracts, with Robinson remaining on the primary squad instead of being assigned to the G League.

Robinson’s NBA debut occurred on October 24 against the New York Knicks, where he contributed three points and four rebounds in ten minutes of play. On November 2, he started for Sioux Falls and scored 15 points in their season opener. A standout performance came on December 10 when he tallied 32 points, seven rebounds, and six assists while shooting 10-for-17 from three-point range against the Agua Caliente Clippers. His first NBA start took place on February 25, 2019 versus the Phoenix Suns, where he added five points. Later, on March 19 against Oklahoma City Blue, Robinson posted a season-high 36 points in the G League.

Robinson’s rookie campaign earned him All-NBA G League Third Team honors after averaging 21.4 points per game with shooting splits of 51.4% overall and 48.3% from three-point territory across 33 contests, alongside averages of 4.3 rebounds and three assists. On April 9, his two-way contract was converted into a standard two-year deal. He set franchise records for Sioux Falls by making 157 three-pointers in a single season and establishing a career three-point shooting percentage of 48.5% (minimum 200 attempts), which also stands as an all-time NBA G League record. That year, Robinson led the league in minutes per game at 36.9 and concluded his rookie NBA season with a notable 15-point outing against the Brooklyn Nets on April 10.

2019–20 season: Finals appearance

During the offseason preceding the 2019–20 campaign, Robinson’s contract became fully guaranteed at $1 million with potential escalation to $1.4 million if retained through midseason. He added approximately fifteen pounds in preparation for the season ahead. With Jimmy Butler sidelined due to injury, Robinson achieved a then-career-best scoring output of 21 points on October 27 versus Minnesota Timberwolves and followed that with a new personal high of 23 points on November 3 against Houston Rockets. On November 20, he set franchise records by sinking seven three-pointers in one quarter and eight in one half while scoring a career-high of 29 points against Cleveland Cavaliers.

On December 1 against Brooklyn Nets, Robinson recorded his first double-double with ten rebounds and ten points. Then on December 10 in an overtime victory over Atlanta Hawks, he scored an NBA career-high of 34 points including ten made three-pointers—tying a franchise record for most threes in a single game. Alongside Kendrick Nunn’s team-high of 36 points that night, they established an NBA record for most combined points by an undrafted pair (70). Following this achievement, The Wall Street Journal described Robinson as "the most improbable player in the NBA" and recognized him as "one of the best shooters on the planet." On February 12, 2020, he became the fastest player ever to reach 200 made NBA three-pointers—in just his sixty-ninth game.

On March 4 versus Orlando Magic, Robinson drained nine three-pointers—including seven consecutively—and two days later scored twenty-four points with eight threes against New Orleans Pelicans. This effort raised his single-season total to 233 made threes, breaking multiple Miami Heat and NBA records for undrafted players and rookies alike. On March 8 versus Washington Wizards, he tied the franchise mark for consecutive games with at least one made three-pointer at forty-nine games; this streak extended to fifty-seven by season’s end.

Robinson was also on track to establish NBA records for highest proportion of field goal attempts taken as three-pointers and lowest number of two-point attempts among players logging significant minutes. He completed the COVID-shortened season having made two hundred seventy three-pointers while setting Miami franchise single-season benchmarks in effective field goal percentage (.667), true shooting percentage (.684), and two-point field goal percentage (.654).

Robinson made his playoff debut on August 18 against Indiana Pacers scoring six points. In Game Two of the first round, he matched Miami’s playoff record by making seven three-pointers and led all scorers with twenty-four points. He played an instrumental role in guiding Miami to the NBA Finals against Los Angeles Lakers in which he set a Finals record for most three-pointers by an undrafted player with seven during Game Five. Despite his contributions, Miami fell short in six games to capture the championship.

2020–21 season

On December 25, 2020, Robinson matched the NBA Christmas Day record by sinking seven three-pointers, a feat later equaled by Kyrie Irving and eventually surpassed the following year by Patty Mills. The subsequent day, Bleacher Report noted that six of those shots were made during the first half, establishing a new NBA Christmas Day single-half record. On January 6, in a game against the Boston Celtics, Robinson hit his 300th three-pointer in his 95th career appearance, outpacing Damian Lillard and Luka Dončić in reaching this milestone. By March 11, facing the Orlando Magic, he achieved 400 three-pointers in an NBA-record 125 games, beating Trae Young and Dončić’s pace. His franchise-best streak of 25 consecutive games with multiple three-pointers concluded on April 26 against the Chicago Bulls. Then, on May 1, Robinson set a new benchmark as the quickest player to amass 500 career three-pointers in only 152 games, breaking Dončić’s prior record of 187 games. Additionally, he recorded at least one three-pointer in each of the last 48 contests of the season.

2021–22 season

On August 6, 2021, Robinson inked a five-year contract worth $90 million with the Heat, marking the largest NBA contract ever awarded to an undrafted player and surpassing Fred VanVleet's previous high. Robinson maintained a streak of making at least one three-pointer in each of the first 21 games until December 1, when the Cleveland Cavaliers held him scoreless from beyond the arc, ending his run at 69 games. Just three days later, on December 4, he became the fastest player to reach 600 three-pointers in only 184 games, eclipsing Donovan Mitchell's record.

Robinson missed his first game since April 2019 on December 31 due to NBA COVID-19 protocols, ending an impressive franchise-record iron man streak of 182 consecutive appearances. On February 17, 2022, he converted his 700th three-pointer in his 216th game, setting a new NBA record for fewest games to reach that mark. Throughout the season, Robinson held Miami Heat franchise records for effective field goal percentage (.610) and two-point field goal percentage (.617). Toward the end of the campaign, he lost his starting position to Max Strus as a result of defensive strategy adjustments.

During the playoffs on April 17, 2022, Robinson delivered an impactful performance off the bench by scoring 27 points with eight made three-pointers—establishing a Heat postseason record for most threes in a single game. He tied J. R. Smith for second-most three-pointers by an NBA reserve in postseason history and shot an efficient 9-for-10 overall from the field and 8-for-9 from beyond the arc, including a streak of seven consecutive successful attempts to close out.

2022–23 season: Second NBA Finals

On December 26, 2022, Robinson reached his 800th career three-pointer during his 263rd game in a narrow 113–110 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, becoming the fastest player ever to achieve this milestone and surpassing Luka Dončić’s previous record of 288 games. Four days later against the Denver Nuggets, Robinson overtook Tim Hardaway's Miami franchise record with his career total surpassing Hardaway's mark of 806 made threes. After starting in 208 games across three seasons, Robinson was limited to just one regular-season start during the 2022–23 campaign. His second start came during Game Two of the 2023 NBA playoffs versus the Milwaukee Bucks, prompted by an injury to Tyler Herro. With Victor Oladipo sidelined for the remainder of the playoffs after Game Three due to injury, Miami’s depth was further tested. Robinson missed twenty regular-season contests because of injury and spent much of the year outside the primary rotation. Upon returning to action, he excelled from long range—making ten out of his first thirteen attempts—the highest shooting percentage among all NBA playoff players with at least five attempts during that opening week.

Throughout the playoffs, Robinson surpassed several franchise legends: he moved past Dwyane Wade (97) on April 22; eclipsed Mario Chalmers (117) on May 19; and overtook LeBron James (123) on May 21 to become Miami Heat’s all-time leader in postseason three-pointers made. Robinson played a key role in guiding Miami to their second consecutive NBA Finals appearance in 2023, where they ultimately fell in five games to the Denver Nuggets.

2023–24 season

During his 305th NBA appearance on December 16, 2023, facing the Chicago Bulls, Robinson exceeded the milestone of 900 made three-pointers, surpassing the previous record of 324 games held by Doncic and Hield. On February 26, despite a challenging shooting performance (1–11 FG, 0–6 from beyond the arc) and with six Heat players sidelined due to injuries or suspensions, Robinson played a pivotal role in securing a victory over the Sacramento Kings by setting a personal playoff assist record of 11, eclipsing his former best of nine assists achieved during the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics. His former highest assist count in a regular season game was seven, recorded on March 3, 2022, against the Brooklyn Nets. On March 17, Robinson delivered a season-best performance with 30 points and reached his 1000th career three-point basket in his 343rd game, breaking Hield’s previous record set at 350 games.

Detroit Pistons (2025–present)

On July 7, 2025, Robinson agreed to a three-year deal worth $48 million with the Detroit Pistons, facilitated through a sign-and-trade arrangement with the Heat that involved sending Simone Fontecchio to Miami.
