According to SB Nation Kansas City, Robinson officially announced his decision at at press conference at the Allen Fieldhouse on Monday. He expressed his appreciation for the school and their basketball program and Kansas head coach Bill Self wished the young player nothing but the best.
Robinson doesn’t have a preference on a pro team, which is good because he is likely to be a lottery pick and could be selected as high as No. 2 overall in this year’s draft.
