2018-19 stats:

11.0 MPG, 3.4 PPG, 1.2 RPG, 1.2 APG, 0.5 SPG, 0.2 BPG, 0.4 TPG
48.9 FG%, 47.8 3P%, 70.0 FT%

*Honorable mention:

11/19 vs. St. Francis PA: 11 points, 4-of-5 shooting, 1-of-2 from three-point range, and 2-of-2 from the free throw line

Advanced data:

Robinson has the highest three-point shooting percentage on the team among Tar Heels with 20 or more attempts from long-range. His 47.8 percent clip from deep is just slightly better than Cam Johnson (46.5), who’s taken 76 more threes on the season.

11: The number of three-pointers that Robinson has hit through the mid-way point of his junior year. He hit nine last season, and seven as a freshman.

Synopsis:

Robinson is shooting a career-high in both shooting percentage and three-point percentage. He’s become one of the Tar Heels’ most reliable options off the bench, though there’s no telling whether or not that will parlay into a starting position on next year’s squad.
