Report: Duncan Robinson headed to Pistons in sign-and-trade from Heat

Outside shooter Duncan Robinson is joining the Detroit Pistons on a three-year, $48 million deal as part of a sign-and-trade with the Miami Heat, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.

The Pistons are sending guard Simone Fontecchio to the Heat as part of the transaction.

Robinson spent seven seasons with the Heat and is the franchise's all-time leader with 1,202 career 3-pointers. Robinson set up the move by declining his $19.9 million early termination option over the weekend.

The 31-year-old Robinson will seek more playing time with the Pistons. He averaged 24.1 minutes per outing in 74 games (37 starts) with Miami last season. His career high of 31.4 minutes occurred in the 2020-21 season.

Robinson averaged 11.0 points and made 190 3-pointers last season. He has a career scoring average of 11.3 points in 423 games (283 starts).

Robinson knocked down 752 treys over a three-season span earlier in his career, topped by a career-best 270 in the 2019-20 season, a total that ties for 25th most in NBA history.

Robinson played the final three seasons of his college career at Michigan and was a member of the squad that lost to Villanova in the 2018 national championship game.

He wasn't selected in the 2018 NBA Draft and signed with the Heat as an undrafted free agent.
