Brandon Robinson: 30.0mpg, 16.2ppg, 5.9rpg, 3.0apg, 3.4fpg, 2.1spg, 1.0bpg, 56% FG, 28% 3PT, 68% FT
Brandon Robinson has had a weird year. His performance has been inconsistent, and he had a very meh start to the season (averaging 10/4 through December), but while Liaoning have spent the whole year trying to replace him, they haven't done so yet. The Hunters brought in
Sean Banks for a trial in January, but he was still recovering from injury, which gave Brandon a stay of execution. And although Liaoning this past week bought
Carlos Powell out of his D-League contract and signed him, Robinson is still there, playing as recently as today (recording 22 points and 4 rebounds). Powell is due to start playing next week, so seemingly Robinson's time is coming to a close, but it's been an interesting story of willpower. (Robinson played for Shaanxi last year and averaged 25/10/3/3; like O-Oy before him, he's another example of the CBA's improvements this year. Slight improvements.)
