The Pistons didn't re-sign Robinson after his 10-day contract expired Friday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Robinson made five appearances during his time with the Pistons, averaging 5.6 points, 1.8 assists and 1.4 rebounds in 18.0 minutes. Though he'll most likely head to the G League for his next stop, Robinson may not have to wait long for his next NBA opportunity. He's already appeared in games for the Pistons, Kings and Bucks this season.

Pistons' Justin Robinson: Signs another 10-day contract
Rotowire
Robinson signed a 10-day hardship contract with the Pistons on Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Robinson started the season with the Bucks and was waived at the end of November in favor of Javonte Smart. The Kings then signed him to a 10-day contract in mid-December, but he was once again let go after Sacramento returned to full strength. Now he lands in Detroit, who is currently without Killian Hayes, Cory Joseph and Saben Lee due to COVID-19 protocols. As long as those three remain sidelined, Robinson has a good chance of cracking Detroit's rotation.

Justin Robinson: Won't be retained by Sacramento
Rotowire
The Kings don't intend to re-sign Robinson when his 10-day contract expires Monday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Robinson was one of several players brought in as a replacement player within the past two weeks while Sacramento was without several members of the roster due to the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. The Kings are just about back to full health now, as the team was without just three players in Sunday's 127-102 loss to the Grizzlies. Robinson went unused off the bench in that contest, so the team's decision not to retain him isn't overly surprising.

Rotowire

Justin Robinson: Cut loose by Milwaukee
Rotowire
The Bucks plan to waive Robinson on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
The Bucks have been without several key players at various points through the first month and change of the regular season, resulting in Robinson having a larger role for Milwaukee than what might have been expected when he signed a two-way deal in September. The 24-year-old guard wasn't especially productive over his 17 appearances off the Milwaukee bench, however, averaging just 2.8 points (on 31.6 percent shooting from the field), 1.2 assists and 0.8 rebounds in 11.6 minutes per game. The Bucks will cut him loose to clear up a two-way spot for Javonte Smart, an undrafted rookie who is two years younger and was turning heads in the G League with an average of 22.0 points per game for the Sioux Falls Skyforce.

Bucks' Justin Robinson: Plays 27 minutes Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson ended with five points (1-7 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists and one rebound in 27 minutes during Thursday's 137-95 loss to Miami.
Robinson saw plenty of run as the Bucks relied heavily on their bench in the blowout loss to the Heat. He's unlikely to feature in the rotation on a regular basis and looks set to spend time in the G League this year.

Lakers' Justin Robinson: Heading to Milwaukee
Rotowire
Robinson signed a two-way deal with the Bucks on Sunday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
After appearing in nine games with the Thunder last season, Robinson has agreed to a two-way deal with the Bucks. The 23-year-old has averaged just 1.9 points and 0.9 assists per game in 7.6 minutes of action throughout 18 career appearances but will look to make the most out of his opportunity with Milwaukee. As a two-way signee, he'll likely spend time in the G League with minimal impact at the NBA level.

Thunder's Justin Robinson: Won't be retained by OKC
Rotowire
The Thunder don't intend to re-sign Robinson after his second 10-day contract expired Sunday, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Oklahoma City apparently didn't see enough from Robinson over the course of his first two 10-day deals to justify keeping him in the fold for the remainder of the season. Over his nine appearances for the Thunder, Robinson averaged 2.3 points and 1.0 assists in 9.8 minutes per game while shooting 33.3 percent from the field. The Thunder will replace him on the 15-man roster with wing Charles Brown, who agreed to a 10-day deal.

Thunder's Justin Robinson: Earns second 10-day contract
Rotowire
Robinson signed a second 10-day contract with the Thunder on Thursday, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Robinson will remain with Oklahoma City for several more days after he averaged 3.5 points and 1.3 assists in 12.0 minutes per game across the past six contests. He should continue to play a similar role off the bench for the Thunder going forward.

Thunder's Justin Robinson: Plays 17 minutes in loss
Rotowire
Robinson tallied three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists and two rebounds across 17 minutes during Thursday's 129-102 loss to Cleveland.
In his third game with Oklahoma City, Robinson struggled to get much of anything going in the blowout loss. The 25-year-old point guard will likely require more injuries to the team's backcourt to have a chance at gaining worthwhile fantasy value.

Thunder's Justin Robinson: Will play Monday
Rotowire
Robinson will be available to make his Thunder debut Monday night against the Pistons, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Robinson and Jaylen Hoard signed with the Thunder on Monday, and coach Mark Daigneault told the media pregame that he expects the pair to be a part of the rotation right away. Robinson fared well in the G League bubble earlier this season, but for fantasy purposes he's unlikely to be more than a low-end DFS flyer.

Thunder's Justin Robinson: Inks 10-day deal with OKC
Rotowire
Robinson signed a 10-day contract with the Thunder on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Robinson shined in the G League bubble earlier this season, and he'll now get an NBA opportunity with a Thunder team dealing with several injuries. With Oklahoma City in full-on rebuilding mode, it wouldn't be a surprise if Robinson immediately finds a spot in the rotation off the bench, though he's unlikely to be fantasy-relevant. Robinson saw limited action in nine games for the Wizards last season with his most recent NBA appearance being Jan. 1, 2020.
