What's In Your Bag? Ep. 8 - Justin Robinson

What's In Your Bag? With Andrew Robinson

Justin Robinson breaks down the ins and outs of the business of the NBA when it comes to trying to make a roster. After stints with the Washington Wizards, Milwaukee Bucks, and a few other NBA franchises, Robinson speaks on the mental toll it takes on a player trying to stick around in the league, dealing with the pressures of non-guaranteed contracts, constant trips to the G League, and getting thrown into the rotation at any given time.

It's a life that doesn't come with any glamour, but if done correctly, can still earn you a very good amount of money. We get into the financials of an NBA player trying to make a roster, and why guys often will elect to stay in the G League as opposed to going overseas, and we also pick Justin's brain on his decision to forego the G League this season, to play in the Australian NBL, one fo the fastest rising league's in the world.

We end it with some fashion talk of course, including the ideology behind putting together a tunnel fit, not trying to overspend while getting fly, and whether or not players should have stylists.

This interview was without a doubt one of the best conversations we've had, so get comfy, and buckle up, because this one is a treat!
