The Milwaukee Bucks to sign Glenn Robinson III to Exhibit 10 deal
The Milwaukee Bucks made another signing in their bid to find a suitable player who would complement the current roster as they bid for a stellar run in the upcoming season.
A day after waiving three players, the Bucks signed Glenn Robinson III to an Exhibit 10 contract, a report by Eric Nehm revealed.
Another Glen Robinson in Milwaukee
An Exhibit 10 contract is a one-year deal worth the league minimum that allows teams to convert it into a two-way contract before the regular season begins.
Before signing Robinson, the Bucks waived forward Drew Timme, guard Jazian Gortman and two-way guard Omari Moore.
Robinson is a second-generation NBA player whose father, Glenn “Big Dog” Robinson, was Milwaukee’s top overall pick in the 1994 NBA Draft.
A super athletic guard
The younger Robinson is known for his tremendous vertical leap. He ruled the 2017 Slam Dunk contest while playing for the Indiana Pacers. Glenn was selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves as the 40th overall pick in the 2014 Draft.
The 29-year-old Robinson had played nine seasons in the NBA. Aside from Minnesota and Indiana, the athletic former Michigan Wolverine also had stops with Golden State, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Sacramento.
The 6'6'' Robinson has career averages of 5.9 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 0.8 assists in 304 NBA games. While this may not be a major signing, it is certainly worth looking at a player who could shoot and defend the wing.
