Forward

The junior forward from Washington, D.C., averaged 18 points per game this season, a career best accompanied by his 11.9 rebounds per game. He led the conference in rebounding and has the Jayhawks ranked in the top five in the country. Kansas will be the No. 1 seed when the Big 12 Conference tournament kicks off, and if KU finishes strong, the Jayhawks will be looking at a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament as well. Robinson is also being considered as one of the leading candidates for NCAA Player of the Year.
