Robinson missed Game 4 of the first-round series against the Philadelphia 76ers after initially reinjuring the ankle. He came back and played three games before being ruled out.
In 31 games (21 starts) of an injury-marred sixth NBA season, Robinson averaged 5.6 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and a career-best 1.2 steals per game.
