Thomas Robinson received no guaranteed money in his contract with the Lakers, according to Alex Kennedy of Basketball Insiders.
It’s common for training camp invites to get little to no guaranteed money, but this really speaks to how bare the market was for T-Rob’s services. Although Los Angeles has a lot of frontcourt depth, Robinson’s hustle and effort could give him an edge to make the final roster. He’ll have to beat out several others, but it’s not an impossible scenario. Fellow camp invitees Metta World Peace, Julian Jacobs and Travis Wear also received no guaranteed money in their deals.
