Nate Robinson

His time with the OKC Thunder was limited to the 2010-11 season when he played just four games with the team. Robinson appeared in three playoff games with two against the Memphis Grizzlies and one versus the Dallas Mavericks.

Although Robinson is short in stature his game is often punctuated by his ability to dunk and also hit from the perimeter. He’s that type of player who can take over a game and despite not playing in the association since the 2015-16 season the 35-year-old is still in prime condition.

But it’s Robinson’s off court antics he might be best known for. Sure, there is the leap over prior slam dunk champion Dwight Howard when Nate won his third dunk championship but remember the 2010 playoffs?

Alongside Glen ‘Big Baby’ Davis, the pair became the unlikely heroes of Game 4 when the Celtics tied up the series versus the Lakers. But, it was their post-game presser which stole the show.

Davis has played in the Big3 League so reuniting him with Robinson could serve up some humorous moments on and off the hardwood.
