Robinson-Earl notched five points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and one block over 17 minutes during Monday's 135-119 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
While Robinson-Earl is not expected to score a lot on a nightly basis, he has not shot the ball well recently, averaging 3.3 points on just 25.0 percent from the field and 20.0 percent from three in his last four games. After doing some time in the starting lineup out of necessity earlier, Robinson-Earl has settled within the second unit and will continue to back up Pascal Siakam.
Nov 20, 2025
Earns standard deal
The Pacers signed Robinson-Earl to a standard contract Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
ANALYSIS
The deal is not fully guaranteed, but the Pacers will go ahead and waive Monte Morris to make this signing official. Through 10 appearances with the Pacers, Robinson-Earl has averaged 5.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.6 steals in 20.3 minutes.
Nov 17, 2025
Not starting vs. Detroit
Robinson-Earl is coming off the bench in Monday's game against Detroit.
ANALYSIS

Nov 11, 2025
Starting Tuesday
Robinson-Earl will start Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will get the starting nod for the first time this season after signing a second 10-day contract with the Pacers on Tuesday. The 25-year-old forward has logged double-digit minutes in three straight games, averaging 8.0 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 25.0 minutes per contest during that span.
Nov 11, 2025
Inks another 10-day deal
The Pacers signed Robinson-Earl to another 10-day contract Tuesday, according to NBA reporter Marc Stein.
ANALYSIS
This was a no-brainer for the shorthanded Pacers. In five previous appearances for the club, Robinson-Earl averaged 5.2 points and 6.8 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per contest.
Nov 10, 2025
Double-digit boards off bench
Robinson-Earl accumulated nine points (3-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and two steals over 32 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 114-83 loss to the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
With Pascal Siakam (rest) getting a breather on the second night of a back-to-back, Robinson-Earl saw his biggest workload of the season and just missed recording his first double-double of the season despite his poor shooting. It's the second time in the last three games that the 25-year-old forward has pulled down double-digit boards, and during that stretch he's averaging 8.0 points, 10.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 25.0 minutes a contest.
Nov 6, 2025
Pulls down 15 rebounds in loss
Robinson-Earl chipped in eight points (3-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 112-103 loss to Brooklyn.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl didn't have his best shooting performance in Wednesday's loss to the Nets, but he was a force to be reckoned with on the glass and grabbed a season-high output in boards. This was his third game with the Pacers after joining the club Nov. 1. He shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside as long as he stays in a bench role.
Nov 1, 2025
Set to join Indiana
The Pacers plan to sign Robinson-Earl to a 10-day hardship exception contract, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was waived by the Mavericks in mid-October before the start of the 2025-26 regular season. He'll get another opportunity with the Pacers, who are dealing with several injuries including Obi Toppin (foot), Bennedict Mathurin (toe) and T.J. McConnell (hamstring). Robinson-Earl appeared in 66 regular-season games (nine starts) for the Pelicans during the 2024-25 campaign and averaged 6.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.6 steals over 18.8 minutes per game.
Sep 26, 2025
Inks deal with Dallas
The Mavericks signed Robinson-Earl on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl's deal with the team is likely for training camp, as he'll have to earn a spot on the roster. There's a chance he ends up playing in the G League for the Texas Legends. During the 2024-25 campaign, Robinson-Earl played 66 regular-season games for the Pelicans, averaging 6.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 34.1 percent from beyond the arc.
Apr 13, 2025
Grabs 16 boards in loss
Robinson-Earl totaled 10 points (4-16 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 16 rebounds, five assists and a steal in 33 minutes during Sunday's 115-100 loss to the Thunder.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was dominant on the glass Sunday, registering a career-high 16 rebounds. Aside from his performance on the boards, Robinson-Earl struggled, connecting on just 25 percent of his shots from the floor and 14.3 percent of his three-point attempts. Despite his inefficiency, Robinson-Earl extended his streak of double-digit scoring performances to three to close out the season.
Apr 11, 2025
Nabs double-double in defeat
Robinson-Earl amassed 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt), 10 rebounds, three assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Thursday's 136-111 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old received the starting nod for the first time since Jan. 24 due to Kelly Olynyk (Achilles) being sidelined. Robinson-Earl made the most of his opportunity, recording his third double-double on the season while tying the team-high mark in rebounds. The fourth-year forward did struggle from three-point range against Milwaukee, and he has shot 33.3 percent from beyond the arc in his last five appearances.
Apr 10, 2025
Entering starting five
Robinson-Earl is starting Thursday's game against the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will get the call at power forward due to the absence of Kelly Olynyk (Achilles). This marks Robinson-Earl's first start since Jan. 24, though he failed to do much with the opportunity, finishing with five points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals in 20 minutes.
Mar 24, 2025
Flirts with triple-double
Robinson-Earl ended Sunday's 136-130 loss to the Pistons with 13 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and eight assists over 32 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Yvis Missi (hip) and Zion Williamson (back) missed the first half of this back-to-back set, but could be back Monday against the 76ers. The Pelicans aren't playing for much in the final few weeks, meaning Robinson-Earl could find himself with more opportunities like the one he saw Sunday night. He's worth monitoring closely after arguably his best performance of the season.
Mar 9, 2025
Tallies seven points in loss
Robinson-Earl supplied seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes during Saturday's 146-117 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was back in the rotation Saturday, playing at least 20 minutes for just the second time in the past 21 games, eight of which he failed to see the court altogether. It's been a disappointing season for Robinson-Earl, something that can be said for his entire career to this point.
Feb 14, 2025
Impresses off bench in overtime win
Robinson-Earl finished Thursday's 140-133 overtime win over Sacramento with 16 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 18 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl shined off the Pelicans bench in Thursday's overtime battle, leading all bench players in scoring and threes made while finishing as one of six players with a double-digit scoring total in a winning effort. Robinson-Earl set a new season high in threes made, recording his third game of the year with 15 or more points.
Jan 25, 2025
Retreating to bench Saturday
Robinson-Earl is not in the Pelicans' starting lineup against the Hornets on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl made his sixth start of the regular season Friday against the Grizzlies, and he finished with five points, five rebounds, two assists and two steals over 20 minutes in a 139-126 loss. He'll go back to a reserve role Saturday while Zion Williamson (illness) returns to the Pelicans' starting five.
Jan 24, 2025
Starting vs. Memphis
Robinson-Earl is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
As has often been the case this season, Robinson-Earl is in the starting unit in place of Zion Williamson (illness). The former Villanova standout is averaging 9.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 steals per game when deployed as a starter.
Jan 18, 2025
Fills box score Friday
Robinson-Earl ended Friday's 136-123 win over Utah with eight points (4-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 21 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl filled the box score for the Pelicans on Friday, putting up his highest scoring output since a nine-point showing in the Dec. 26 loss to Houston. However, it was veteran big man Daniel Theis who got the starting nod at center in the absence of Yves Missi, meaning Robinson-Earl likely remains quite far off from fantasy relevance. Robinson-Earl hasn't attained double-digit points or boards since a Nov. 27 defeat to Toronto.
Jan 10, 2025
Slides back to bench
Robinson-Earl will come off the bench in Friday's game against the 76ers.
ANALYSIS
Javonte Green will supplant Robinson-Earl in the starting lineup Friday. Over his last five outings (one start), the big man has averaged 3.6 points and 4.4 rebounds in 15.4 minutes per contest.
Jan 9, 2025
Muted impact in spot start
Robinson-Earl logged two points (1-1 FG), four rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 119-100 loss to Portland.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl made his fifth start of the season in place of the resting Zion Williamson, but each of New Orleans' starters didn't receive their normal quota of playing time due to Wednesday's rout. Over five starting appearances, Robinson-Earl is averaging 9.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 threes in 30.6 minutes. With the statuses of Trey Murphy (ankle) and Herbert Jones (shoulder) uncertain for Friday's contest against Philadelphia, Robinson-Earl may be needed for another spot start in that one.
Jan 8, 2025
Part of first unit
Robinson-Earl will start Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will make his fifth start of the season, and his first since Nov. 20, filling in for Zion Williamson (injury management). In his other four starts, Robinson-Earl averaged 10.8 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 blocks.
Jan 3, 2025
Good to go against Washington

ANALYSIS

Jan 3, 2025
Questionable for Friday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has missed the team's last two games with a sprained left ankle, and his status is uncertain for his contest. If he can't go, then expect Daniel Theis and Javonte Green to continue receiving minutes as replacements.
Jan 1, 2025
No-go Wednesday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Miami.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will miss a second straight game due to a sprained left ankle. Javonte Green and Daniel Theis are the likeliest candidates to receive Robinson-Earl's vacated minutes. His next chance to play will come Friday against Washington.
Dec 31, 2024
Iffy for Wednesday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl is in danger of missing a second straight game due to a left ankle sprain. If he's sidelined, Javonte Green could see double-digit minutes again.
Dec 30, 2024
Won't play Monday due to injury
Robinson-Earl has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Clippers due to a left ankle sprain.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl didn't appear on the injury report earlier Monday, so it's likely that his left ankle sprain is a recent injury. The severity of the injury isn't clear, and his next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against Miami. Javonte Green and Daniel Theis should see increased playing time off the bench due to Robinson-Earl's injury.
Dec 27, 2024
Increased role in loss
Robinson-Earl totaled five points (2-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in 23 minutes during Friday's 132-124 loss to Memphis.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl played at least 20 minutes for just the second time in the past 13 games, despite the fact the Pelicans are still dealing with multiple injuries. Although he has been a relatively consistent part of the rotation, Robinson-Earl has been unable to make the most of his opportunities, averaging 6.8 points and 4.8 rebounds in 19.4 minutes per game.
Dec 19, 2024
Good to go Thursday
Robinson-Earl (illness) is absent from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against Houston.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl missed back-to-back games with a non-COVID illness but has been given the green light to face the Rockets. With Daniel Theis (personal) idle, Robinson-Earl could see more action.
Dec 14, 2024
Still out Sunday
Robinson-Earl (illness) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Pacers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will miss his second straight game Sunday due to an illness. His next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Houston.
Dec 12, 2024
Ruled out Thursday
Robinson-Earl won't play in Thursday's game versus the Kings due to a non-COVID illness.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will miss his first game of the season Thursday due to a non-COVID illness. In his absence, Daniel Theis and Trey Jemison are candidates to receive increased playing time. Robinson-Earl's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Indiana.
Nov 28, 2024
Double-double off bench
Robinson-Earl ended Wednesday's 119-93 loss to Toronto with 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 10 rebounds, three assists and two steals over 33 minutes off the bench.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year big has two double-doubles on the season, and they've both come in the last three games. Wednesday's performance came with Trey Murphy (knee) joining Zion Williamson (hamstring) on the sidelines, and Robinson-Earl could continue to see a bigger role until the New Orleans frontcourt gets healthier. He's played at least 20 minutes in 13 straight games, averaging 10.0 points, 7.1 boards, 1.5 assists, 1.2 threes and 1.0 steals in 27.2 minutes a game over that stretch.
Nov 23, 2024
Shines off bench Friday
Robinson-Earl racked up 19 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and two steals in 23 minutes during Friday's 112-108 loss to Golden State.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl had one of his best performances of the season Friday despite not starting, as he recorded season-high marks in both points and rebounds en route to his first double-double of the campaign. Robinson-Earl has been in and out of the starting unit in recent weeks, and he'll continue to have value in most fantasy formats as long as he continues to see around 25 minutes per game.
Nov 22, 2024
Not starting Friday
Robinson-Earl is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been moving in and out of the starting lineup in recent days, and he'll head back to the bench for this one. The Pelicans will start Trey Murphy III, Javonte Green, Elfrid Payton, Brandon Ingram and Daniel Theis.
Nov 20, 2024
Nears double figures as starter
Robinson-Earl accumulated nine points (4-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 128-100 loss to the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl entered the starting lineup Wednesday after coming off the bench in the previous game, providing a boost on both ends of the floor while coming up one point short of the double-digit mark. Robinson-Earl, who ended second on the team in rebounds and steals, has recorded at least nine points and seven rebounds in three straight contests.
Nov 20, 2024
Starting vs. Cleveland
Robinson-Earl is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been alternating between the starting lineup and the bench in recent games, and that trend will continue in this matchup Wednesday. In three starts this season, Robinson-Earl is averaging 11.3 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 33.0 minutes per game.
Nov 19, 2024
Moves back to bench Tuesday
Robinson-Earl is not starting Tuesday against the Mavericks, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will return to the bench after starting in the loss to the Lakers on Saturday. In 11 outings with the second unit this season. Robinson-Earl is averaging 5.3 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.
Nov 16, 2024
Decent output as starter
Robinson-Earl notched 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt), nine rebounds and an assist across 33 minutes in Saturday's 104-99 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl got the start due to the absence of Trey Murphy (hamstring) and posted a solid line, ending just one rebound shy of a double-double and playing with some much-needed energy in a depleted lineup that's lacking confidence right now. Murphy is expected to return for the game against the Mavericks on Tuesday, and if that's the case, then Robinson-Earl is likely to return to a bench role.
Nov 16, 2024
Starting vs. Lakers
Robinson-Earl is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl returns to the first unit for this matchup since Trey Murphy (hamstring) is sidelined due to injury management. Robinson-Earl is averaging 12.0 points and 4.5 rebounds per game as a starter this season.
Nov 12, 2024
Scores 15 off bench
Robinson-Earl posted 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 20 minutes during Monday's 107-105 loss to the Nets.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl moved to the bench with Trey Murphy back from injury, but he still saw a healthy workload and made the most of his minutes. With Zion Williamson (hamstring) set to miss several weeks, there should be plenty of minutes available for Robinson-Earl to remain relevant, at least in deeper formats.
Nov 11, 2024
Retreats to bench Monday
Robinson-Earl will come off the bench in Monday's matchup versus the Nets.
ANALYSIS
With Trey Murphy making his season debut Monday, Robinson-Earl will slide to the bench after starting in two of the Pelicans' last three games. The 24-year-old will likely still see significant run off the bench with Murphy limited to 20 minutes, and he will continue to play a significant role until Zion Williamson (hamstring) returns to game action.
Nov 8, 2024
Returning to starting five Friday
Robinson-Earl will enter the starting lineup in Friday's matchup versus the Magic.
ANALYSIS
With Zion Williamson ruled out with a hamstring injury, Robinson-Earl will step into the starting five once again. The 24-year-old started in Monday's loss to the Trail Blazers, during which he posted 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal across 34 minutes
Nov 6, 2024
Moves back to bench role Wednesday
Robinson-Earl is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
This is not a surprising move, as Robinson-Earl will head back to the bench due to the return of Zion Williamson (thigh) to the starting lineup. Robinson-Earl is averaging 14.5 minutes per game this season, and his fantasy upside should be close to minimal now that he's returned to a second-unit role.
Nov 5, 2024
Strong two-way play Monday
Robinson-Earl produced 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 118-100 loss to Portland.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl missed just two shots from the field Monday and also made his presence on the glass, although his contributions weren't enough for a depleted Pelicans team that looked outmatched. This was Robinson-Earl's first start of the season, but even if he remains in a starting role, he's nothing more than a low-end streaming alternative in most formats.
Nov 4, 2024
Making first start of season
Robinson-Earl is starting Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will make his first start of the season after news broke that Zion Williamson (hamstring) would miss another game. Robinson-Earl shouldered a heavier workload than usual Sunday against the Hawks, finishing with six points, seven rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 bench minutes.
Oct 31, 2024
Makes impact off bench
Robinson-Earl provided nine points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 loss to Golden State.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl had his best game of the season Wednesday, posting his highest totals in points, rebounds, assists and minutes. However, the 24-year-old big man is averaging just 9.8 minutes per contest, making it hard for him to produce consistently.
Jun 28, 2024
Team option picked up
The Pelicans are picking up Robinson-Earl's $2.2 million team option for 2024-25, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reported Friday.
ANALYSIS
After two campaigns in Oklahoma City, Robinson-Earl joined the Pelicans last season and made 39 appearances (one start). He averaged 2.9 points and 1.9 rebounds in 8.6 minutes per game. Robinson-Earl will presumably be an end-of-bench frontcourt option again next season.
Apr 29, 2024
Available for Game 4
Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been cleared to play in Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was added to the injury report as a game-time call due to a left ankle sprain, but he'll be available to take the floor if called upon. He hasn't had much of a role so far in this series, logging only five minutes in Game 2.
Apr 28, 2024
Iffy for Monday
Robinson-Earl is questionable for Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder due to a left ankle sprain.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear when Robinson-Earl suffered the injury, as he's played only five minutes across the first three games of the opening-round series and didn't see any action during Saturday's Game 3 loss. If Robinson-Earl is ruled out, his absence shouldn't impact the Pelicans' rotation.
Apr 4, 2024
Fails to score in 12 minutes
Robinson-Earl racked up zero points (0-3 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist over 12 minutes during Wednesday's 117-108 loss to the Magic.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl put up a bag full of nothing in the loss, continuing his underwhelming season. He is well outside the top 400 this season, playing in just 34 games. With no clear path to minutes, there is no reason to think his role will change, making him a non-factor in all formats.
Mar 22, 2024
Muted role continues in win
Robinson-Earl chipped in two points (1-1 FG) in three minutes during Friday's 111-88 win over the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl saw just three minutes, continuing what has been a disappointing season. He has scored double-digits only three times all year, suiting up a total of 31 times. He is well outside the top 350 in standard leagues, making him a non-factor in all formats.
Feb 16, 2024
Inks new deal
Robinson-Earl signed a standard two-year NBA contract with the Pelicans on Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was previously operating under a two-way contract and made 21 appearances for the Pelicans, averaging 3.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in 10.0 minutes per game. Despite the promotion, his role will likely remain limited as long as Jonas Valanciunas, Larry Nance and Cody Zeller (knee) are available.
Jan 5, 2024
Not listed on injury report
Robinson-Earl (illness) isn't listed on the Pelicans' injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl missed the Pelicans' 107-106 win over Minnesota on Wednesday but should be available Friday. However, he's garnered inconsistent playing time this year, and New Orleans is mostly healthy, so Robinson-Earl shouldn't garner a fantasy-relevant role versus Los Angeles.
Jan 3, 2024
Late scratch Wednesday
Robinson-Earl is out for Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves due to a non-COVID illness.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been an inconsistent part of New Orleans' rotation, even when available. His next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with the Clippers.
Dec 22, 2023
Efficient as reserve
Robinson-Earl registered 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist in 20 minutes during Thursday's 123-104 victory over the Cavaliers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl saw increased run Thursday with the Pelicans shorthanded in the frontcourt, and he made the most of his opportunity with an efficient showing from the floor. Although Thursday's performance was encouraging, he'll likely continue to be on the fringes of the rotation once the team is back to full health.
Nov 9, 2023
Nears double-double in start
Robinson-Earl notched 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds and one assist in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 122-101 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl got the start Wednesday due to New Orleans dealing with a handful of injuries, hauling in a team-high rebound total while finishing one board short of a double-double. Robinson-Earl made his first appearance of the regular season for the Pelicans and could see extended playing time while New Orleans works through an early-season injury bug.
Nov 8, 2023
Making first start as Pelican
Robinson-Earl will start Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite having joined the Pels merely six days ago, Robinson-Earl will make his first start with New Orleans, capitalizing on the absences of six rotation pieces. in 20 games as a starter last season with OKC, Robinson-Earl averaged 8.7 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.2 steals/blocks across 23.7 minutes.
Nov 2, 2023
Joins the Pelicans
Robinson-Earl will join the Pelicans on a two-way contract, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl reportedly had standard deal offers elsewhere, but he liked the opportunity ahead of him with New Orleans. It may not happen right away, but Robinson-Earl does have the talent to earn a rotation spot down the road.
Oct 23, 2023
Waived by Houston
Robinson-Earl was waived by the Rockets on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was traded from the Thunder to the Rockets last week but was unable to land a spot on Houston's final roster. He made 91 appearances for Oklahoma City over the past two seasons and averaged 7.2 points and 4.9 rebounds in 20.5 minutes per game. It certainly seems possible that he'll be able to find work elsewhere during the 2023-24 campaign.
Oct 17, 2023
Traded to Houston
Robinson-Earl has been traded to the Rockets, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.
ANALYSIS
The Thunder cleared two roster spots by acquiring and then waiving Kevin Porter in exchange for Robinson-Earl and Victor Oladipo. Houston's frontcourt depth isn't the greatest, so Robinson-Earl will have a chance to compete for end-of-rotation minutes.
Jul 12, 2023
Suiting up Wednesday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) is available for Wednesday's Summer League game against Indiana, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.
ANALYSIS

Remains sidelined Saturday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) is out for Saturday's Summer League game against the Mavericks, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will miss his fourth straight game as he continues to battle with a right ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up is Tuesday's matchup with Houston.
Jul 3, 2023
To miss three games
Robinson-Earl (ankle) will miss all three games during the Salt Lake City Summer League, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
The Thunder will go to Las Vegas at the end of the week, so it's possible that Robinson-Earl could return July 8 against the Mavericks. There is increased competition for minutes in Oklahoma City for Robinson-Earl this season, as Chet Holmgren and Aleksej Pokusevski should be healthy for the start of the campaign.

Returns to bench
Robinson-Earl isn't in the starting five for Wednesday's Play-In Game versus the Pelicans, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will be replaced by Jalen Williams in the starting lineup Wednesday. Robinson-Earl should function as one of the Thunder's primary backup bigs, averaging 4.3 points and 2.7 rebounds in 13.3 minutes across his last 10 games coming off the bench.
Apr 9, 2023
Draws start Sunday
Robinson-Earl is starting Sunday against the Grizzlies, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl totaled just six minutes of playing time over the Thunder's last five games, but he'll draw the start for the shorthanded club Sunday since the team is locked into its seed in the Play-In Tournament. He started 19 matchups earlier this year and averaged 8.6 points and 5.4 rebounds in 23.1 minutes per game.
Mar 25, 2023
Shows signs of life with 14 points
Robinson-Earl racked up 14 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds in 17 minutes during Friday's 116-111 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl had been a non-factor for OKC of late, as he entered Friday having played in just three of the team's previous seven games and averaging a meager 1.3 points and 3.0 rebounds over 8.3 minutes during that stretch. The Villanova product made his presence known against Los Angeles, however, tallying his highest point total since early December on the strength of an efficient 5-for-6 shooting line. The Thunder are clawing to remain in the Western Conference playoff picture, so Robinson-Earl may not see this level of playing time moving forward despite his strong effort Friday.
Mar 17, 2023
Fails to score in nine minutes
Robinson-Earl ended with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across nine minutes during Thursday's 128-111 loss to Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl saw action for just the second time in the past two weeks, taking advantage of a game that ended with garbage time. After sliding into the starting lineup earlier in the season, Robinson-Earl has faded fast over the past two months. At this point, he is not even a player to consider in very deep formats.
Mar 3, 2023
Returns to bench
Robinson isn't in the starting five for Friday's game versus Utah, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Isaiah Joe will replace Robinson-Earl in the starting lineup Friday. The 22-year-old forward is averaging 5.7 points and 3.2 rebounds in 16.2 minutes across his 14 games coming off the bench this season.
Mar 1, 2023
Gets starting nod
Robinson-Earl is in the startling lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Lakers, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will replace Isaiah Joe in the starting five Wednesday. The second-year big man is averaging 9.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 23.5 minutes across his previous 18 starts.
Feb 14, 2023
Scoreless in return
Robinson-Earl racked up zero points (0-5 FG, 0-4 3Pt), three rebounds and two steals in 18 minutes during Monday's 103-100 loss to New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl (ankle) played in his first NBA game since Dec. 12. But he missed all five of his shots and grabbed just three rebounds in 18 minutes. If Robinson-Earl had a clear path to playing time, his three-point shooting from the center position would make him a usable fantasy asset. But with season-long averages of 8.5 points and 21.1 minutes, the 22-year-old isn't likely to help fantasy managers this season.
Feb 13, 2023
Recalled from G League
Robinson-Earl has been recalled from the G League, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
He hasn't played for the Thunder since Dec. 12, and it doesn't help that he's been dealing with a right ankle injury as well.
Feb 5, 2023
Still in G League
Robinson-Earl (ankle) remains on assignment with the G League's Oklahoma City Blue and won't play in Monday's matchup against the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl is currently in the G League as part of his rehab process from a sprained right ankle. He scored 16 points (7-11 FG) and grabbed three rebounds in 21 minutes during Saturday's win over Stockton and appears on track to return to the NBA club shortly.
Feb 3, 2023
Returns to G League
The Thunder assigned Robinson-Earl to the Oklahoma City Blue of the G League on Friday, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl's stints in the G League indicate that he is close to returning from his right ankle sprain. The second-year big man hasn't played since Dec. 12 but is going through the final part of his rehab with the Blue to get back into playing shape. Robinson-Earl started in 18 of his 26 appearances before going down to injury.
Feb 1, 2023
Recalled to NBA club
The Thunder recalled Robinson-Earl (ankle) to the NBA club from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue, but he's been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against Houston, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was sent to the G League on Tuesday as part of his rehab process from an ankle injury that's sidelined him since Dec. 12. He played 32 minutes for the Blue on Tuesday and totaled 25 points (9-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and one block, but he won't be available the following day to prevent any potential setbacks. Given his extend playing time and quality production at the G League level, Robinson-Earl appears to be fully healthy and will presumably be available for the Thunder's rematch against the Rockets on Saturday.
Jan 31, 2023
Assigned to G League
The Thunder assigned Robinson-Earl (ankle) to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Robinson-Earl will head to the G League as part of his rehab process and should make an appearance for the Blue this week. If all things go well, the second-year big man will likely be back in the mix at the NBA level before long. Prior to his lengthy absence due to an ankle injury, Robinson-Earl averaged 8.5 points and 5.0 rebounds in 21.1 minutes per game.
Jan 30, 2023
Nearing 5-on-5 action
Coach Mark Daigneault said Monday that Robinson-Earl (ankle) "is close" to returning and will play with the Thunder's G League affiliate as part of his rehab process, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been sidelined since Dec. 14 due to the sprained right ankle but appears to be nearing a return. However, he will have to make at least one appearance with the G League Blue prior to seeing any NBA action. Prior to the injury, Robinson-Earl averaged 8.5b points and 5.0 rebounds across 21.1 minutes per game.
Jan 29, 2023
Will remain out Monday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Warriors.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl continues due to be sidelined due to a right ankle sprain. It's unclear when he'll be able to play again, but his next chance to do so will come Wednesday in Houston.
Jan 21, 2023
Out Sunday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) is out Sunday against the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
The center has been out since mid-December. It remains unclear when he may return.
Jan 19, 2023
Still sidelined
Robinson-Earl (ankle) will not play in Friday's game against Sacramento.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been traveling with the team but has not been given a timetable to return quite yet. Coach Mark Daignealt said on Jan 11 that Robinson-Earl wasn't quite into the day-to-day phase but failed to offer more information on his recovery. Although unlikely, Robinson-Earl's next chance to play will come Sunday in Denver.
Jan 11, 2023
Not yet in day-to-day phase
Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault said Tuesday that Robinson-Earl has resumed traveling with the team but isn't yet considered day-to-day as he works his way back from a right ankle sprain, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Daigneault declined to offer a concrete timeline for Robinson-Earl, but the second-year big man looks as though he can safely be ruled out for another week. While Robinson-Earl is sidelined along with Chet Holmgren (foot) and Aleksej Pokusevski (lower leg), the Thunder have been leaning on a committee of Mike Muscala, Eugene Omoruyi, Jaylin Williams and Kenrich Williams to fill minutes at center.
Dec 27, 2022
Out for multiple weeks
Thunder Mark Daigneault said Tuesday that Robinson-Earl (ankle) is "still aways away" from returning and is considered week-to-week, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl hasn't played since Dec. 12 due to a right ankle injury. Aleksej Pokusevski and Jalen Williams will likely remain in the starting lineup in his absence. Fantasy managers should expect Robinson-Earl to be out for multiple more weeks.
Dec 27, 2022
Still out
Robinson-Earl (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup against the Spurs.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl will miss a seventh straight game due to a right ankle injury. It's unclear when he'll suit up again, but his next chance to do so will arrive Thursday against the Hornets.
Dec 22, 2022
Remains out Friday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) will not play in Friday's matchup with the Pelicans, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was deemed week-to-week on Dec. 14 after suffering an ankle injury in the team's previous game. Considering there has been no update on his recovery progress, fantasy managers should feel confident leaving him on the bench. However, he will have until Tuesday to rest before Oklahoma City's next game.
Dec 14, 2022
Deemed week-to-week
Robinson-Earl (ankle) was deemed week-to-week Wednesday, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl left Monday's game against the Mavericks due to an ankle injury, which is severe enough to keep him out a week-plus. In his absence, more minutes could be available for Aleksej Pokusevski, Darius Bazley and Jaylin Williams if he's called up from the G League.
Dec 13, 2022
Will not play Wednesday
Robinson-Earl (ankle) will not take the floor Wednesday versus the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl departed Monday's game versus the Mavericks due to a right ankle injury after 14 minutes of action and won't be able to take the floor a pair of days later. His next opportunity to rejoin the action comes Friday versus the Timberwolves.
Dec 12, 2022
Exits with ankle injury
Robinson-Earl left Monday's game against the Mavericks due to an apparent right ankle injury, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl appeared to roll his ankle during the fourth quarter and headed to the locker room immediately after. Darius Bazley and Aleksej Pokusevski would see an uptick in playing time if Robinson-Earl is forced to miss additional time.
Dec 12, 2022
Coming off bench
Robinson-Earl isn't starting Monday's game against the Mavericks, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has started his team's last six contests, but he'll shift roles as the Thunder elect to roll with Luguentz Dort, Jalen Williams and Aleksej Pokusevski in the frontcourt. Robinson-Earl finished with nine points, five rebounds, two assists and one block in his last contest off the bench Nov. 26 in Houston.
Dec 4, 2022
Back in double figures
Robinson-Earl had 14 points (5-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Saturday's 135-128 victory over Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has now started three straight contests and returned to double figures after being held to seven points Wednesday against the Spurs. The big man has scored in double digits in three of his last five contests, and he's averaging 10.0 points, 6.6 boards, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals in 26.6 minutes over this brief span.
Nov 29, 2022
Secures first double-double
Robinson-Earl produced 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), 13 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 34 minutes during Monday's 105-101 loss to New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl entered the starting lineup for the third time in five games, and he showed up Monday by notching his first double-double of the 2022-23 campaign. He's bounced between roles over the last two weeks or so, as he's started three of his team's last eight matchups and tends to draw a start when Oklahoma City chooses to roll out a bigger starting five.
Nov 28, 2022
Gets another chance to start
Robinson-Earl is starting Monday's game against the Pelicans, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl came off the bench in his team's last two contests, but he'll draw another chance to run with the first unit, as the Thunder have elected to roll with a bigger starting five. He's finished with eight points in each of his last two starts.
Nov 21, 2022
Enters starting lineup
Robinson-Earl is starting Monday's game against the Knicks, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has come off the bench in each of his team's last three contests, but he'll get a chance with the first unit Monday evening with Alekseij Pokusevski (ankle) ruled out.
Nov 19, 2022
Swats three shots Friday
Robinson-Earl finished with 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three blocks and one assist across 28 minutes in Friday's 121-110 loss to the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
After playing 27 combined minutes in the Thunder's previous two contests, Robinson-Earl benefited from an uptick in playing time with Aleksej Pokusevski (ankle) exiting the contest. Though Robinson-Earl excelled during his time on the court, head coach Mark Daigneault's ever-changing frontcourt rotation makes it tough to bank on the second-year big man seeing this level of playing time even if Pokusevski is forced to miss time. Robinson-Earl remains better suited for deeper leagues until his playing time stabilizes in the 25-to-30-minute range.
Nov 14, 2022
Coming off bench
Robinson-Earl isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Celtics, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl put up decent numbers in his last start Sunday against the Knicks, finishing with 17 points and seven boards in 31 minutes, but the Thunder have elected to change up the starting five. Oklahoma City will roll with a smaller first unit by starting Jalen Williams, Luguentz Dort and Aleksej Pokusevski in the frontcourt.
Nov 13, 2022
Scores 17 points in return
Robinson-Earl totaled 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt) and seven rebounds over 31 minutes during Sunday's 145-135 victory over the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was benched for Friday's contest and he responded with a strong showing Sunday. Ten of his season-high 17 points came in the first half and all seven of his boards came after halftime. The 22-year-old is averaging 8.3 points and 3.9 rebounds in 18.3 minutes through 12 games -- 10 starts.
Nov 13, 2022
Starts Sunday against NYK
Robinson-Earl is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl started five games in a row before receiving a DNP-CD against the Raptors on Friday, but he moves back to the starting unit here. He's made nine starts already in 2022-23 and is averaging 8.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.1 steals, 1.0 assists and 0.4 blocks per game across 19.2 minutes in that span.
Nov 11, 2022
Shifts to bench
Robinson-Earl will not start Friday's game against the Raptors, Andrew Schlechtreports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has started nine of the Thunder's 11 games this season but saw his minutes dwindle in three straight contests before being moved to the bench Friday. Oklahoma City will start Aaron Wiggins and Aleksej Pokusevski in the frontcourt.
Nov 6, 2022
Efficient in limited minutes
Robinson-Earl recorded 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block over 18 minutes during Saturday's 108-94 loss to the Bucks.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been able to produce in recent games despite seeing limited minutes, as he has played more than 25 minutes just once throughout the season but has posted five games with 10 or more points. He's also been quite efficient, as he's made 51.9 percent from the field across his first nine outings.
Oct 29, 2022
Coming off bench Saturday
Robinson-Earl will come off the bench Saturday against the Mavericks, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
The Thunder will start Aleksej Pokusevski, bringing Robinson-Earl off the bench for just the second time this season. As a reserve in the opener, he totaled six points, five rebounds and one steal in 12 minutes.
Oct 28, 2022
Prouction wanes in victory
Robinson-Earl accumulated five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 15 minutes during Thursday's 118-110 win over the Clippers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl get the starting nod but managed just 15 minutes in the win. Despite a somewhat consistent role, he has been unable to produce much in the way of fantasy value. The Thunder are clearly not afraid to shuffle their rotation based on the opponent, and so Robinson-Earl should probably not be on the radar outside of deeper formats.
Oct 23, 2022
Gets hot from deep
Robinson-Earl racked up 15 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 26 minutes during Sunday's 116-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has gotten off to a great start from deep, as he's now 7-for-11 from beyond the arc through his first three games of the 2022-23 campaign. He came off the bench in the Thunder's first game of the new season, but he's now started two straight contests and has put up solid performances in each. At this point, Robinson-Earl should be the favorite to see regular starts at center moving forward.
Oct 22, 2022
Gets starting nod Saturday
Robinson-Earl will start Saturday against the Nuggets, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl only saw 12 minutes of action in the season opener Wednesday, but at least he was efficient despite his low-usage rate. He takes Kenrich Williams' place in the starting lineup here and should play in a power forward role with Aleksej Pokusevski at center.
Oct 19, 2022
Won't start season opener
Robinson-Earl will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
ANALYSIS
With Kenrich Williams set to draw the start alongside Aleksej Pokusevski in Oklahoma City's frontcourt Wednesday, Robinson-Earl will shift to a reserve role. It's unclear how often the Thunder will switch up the rotation moving forward, but Robinson-Earl should rejoin the starting unit at some point based on future matchups.
Oct 12, 2022
Delivers mediocre performance
Robinson-Earl amassed just six points (3-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 19 minutes during Tuesday's preseason win over Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl started at center for the Thunder, a role that appears to be his to lose. While the opportunity is certainly a nice one, he is yet to do anything to endear himself to fantasy managers. He can be snagged with a last-round pick for anyone in desperate need of a center, although based on what we have seen thus far in his career, the upside is minimal.
Oct 11, 2022
Starting Tuesday
Robinson-Earl has been placed into the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason game versus the Pistons, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl missed Sunday's exhibition game against Ra'anana Maccabi due to rest. Outside of typical preseason load management, the second-year center is not expected to miss any more time. Robinson-Earl is in line to be the Thunder's starting center this season, giving him solid fantasy upside.
Oct 9, 2022
Resting Sunday
Robinson-Earl is out for Sunday's exhibition game against Ra'anana Maccabi for rest purposes, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was available for each of the Thunder's first three exhibition games this year, but he'll get a night off Sunday. He'll have two more chances to play during the preseason ahead of the team's regular-season opener in Minnesota on Oct. 19.
Apr 3, 2022
Will play Sunday
Robinson-Earl (foot) will play Sunday against the Suns, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl left Friday's game early due to right foot soreness, but the issue won't force him to miss any additional time. Over his last three appearances, the rookie has averaged 6.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 14.0 minutes per game.
Apr 2, 2022
Questionable Sunday
Robinson-Earl (foot) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Suns.
ANALYSIS
The big man left Friday's game early due to right foot soreness. If he is forced to sit out Sunday, more minutes could be in store for Isaiah Roby, Jaylen Hoard and other frontcourt players.
Apr 1, 2022
Doesn't return Friday
Robinson-Earl (foot) didn't return to Friday's loss to the Pistons, Nick Crain of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was unavailable for the final minutes of Friday's matchup due to his right foot soreness, but coach Mark Daigneault said that the 21-year-old was held out as a precautionary measure. Robinson-Earl totaled five points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 11 minutes prior to his departure. It seems as though he'll have a chance to return Sunday against Phoenix.
Apr 1, 2022
Questionable to return
Robinson-Earl is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Pistons due to right foot soreness, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl sustained his injury in the second half of Friday's matchup, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return in the final minutes. If he's unavailable, Isaiah Roby, Olivier Sarr and Jaylen Hoard should see additional run.
Mar 30, 2022
Will have minutes limit Wednesday
Robinson-Earl will come off the bench Wednesday and is expected to see about 15 minutes of action against the Hawks, Andrew Schlecht reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl contributed six points, eight rebounds, one assist and one steal across 15 minutes during Monday's win over Portland, and it sounds like he'll have a similar workload on Wednesday. Despite the extended absence, the 21-year-old is averaging 7.1 points and 5.8 rebounds over 22.9 minutes per game this season.
Mar 28, 2022
Off injury report
Robinson-Earl (foot) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Trail Blazers.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl hasn't appeared since Jan. 28 due to a broken foot, but it sounds like he'll return from the extended absence for Monday's tilt with Portland. The 21-year-old was averaging 7.1 points and 5.8 rebounds across 23.0 minutes per game prior to the injury, but he could face a minutes restriction coming off the long absence.
Mar 26, 2022
Expected back this season
Robinson-Earl (foot) is expected to return to action before the season ends, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl has been sidelined since late January with a broken foot, but he "is getting close" to getting back on the court. He will not have too many more opportunities to play before the season ends, as after Saturday's contest only eight games remain on the Thunder's schedule.
Feb 3, 2022
Suffers fractured foot
Robinson-Earl was diagnosed with a fracture in the third metatarsal of his right foot Thursday and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Andrew Schlecht reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson missed the past two games with what was previously labeled a sprained foot, but he'll now be sidelined for at least the next six weeks. Oklahoma City's regular season will come to an end April 10, so the 21-year-old may played his last game of the 2021-22 campaign. Mike Muscala, Derrick Favors and Mamadi Diakite should see more run in the meantime for the Thunder.
Feb 2, 2022
Out Thursday
Robinson-Earl (foot) is out for Wednesday's contest against the Mavericks, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was a late scratch prior to Wednesday's game and will miss his second consecutive contest due to a right foot sprain. Derrick Favors is likely to see increased opportunities in his absence. The 21-year-old's next chance to play will be Friday against the Trail Blazers.
Jan 31, 2022
Only available in emergency
Robinson-Earl will technically be available for Monday's game against Portland, but he's not expected to play, Brandon Rahbar of Daily Thunder reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl played in a G League game for the OKC Blue earlier in the day, so while he'll dress for Monday's contest, he'll likely be held out. It's unclear what prompted the decision to send the rookie down, as Monday will snap his streak of 12 consecutive starts for the Thunder.
Jan 31, 2022
Back with parent club
Robinson-Earl was recalled by the Thunder on Monday, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was sent to the G League early Monday to play in the Oklahoma City Blue's contest against the South Bay Lakers. He totaled 25 points (9-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and one block across 32 minutes during the 113-110 win. The second-year pro has started the last 12 games for the Thunder, but he isn't expected to see much playing time against the Trail Blazers on Monday after playing extended minutes in the G League.
Jan 31, 2022
Playing in G League game Monday
The Thunder assigned Robinson-Earl to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue to play in Monday's game against the South Bay Lakers, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie has been starting and playing fairly big minutes for the Thunder on a nightly basis, so the decision to send him down is a strange one. The Thunder are scheduled to play a home game against Portland on Monday at 8 p.m. ET, while the Blue-Lakers contest is scheduled for 1 p.m. As such, Robinson-Earl could rejoin the Thunder ahead of its game versus the Trail Blazers, but the coaching staff likely won't want him to handle a major role if he plays big minutes with the Blue earlier in the day.
Jan 24, 2022
Fills the boxscore in loss Monday
Robinson-Earl chipped in 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 22 minutes during Monday's 111-110 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl played just 22 minutes in the loss but managed to deliver some useful production. It's been a wildly inconsistent campaign for the rookie, although to be fair, that is the case for the majority of the roster. While he has shown flashes of upside, the situation is far too volatile at the moment, making him just a deeper league consideration.
Jan 18, 2022
Mediocre in defeat
Robinson-Earl contributed nine points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 104-102 loss to the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
The rookie is experiencing some growing pains as the Thunder's everyday starting center, but the Villanova product's raw talent is evident. The team was confident enough to part ways with Moses Brown after selecting Robinson-Earl with their first pick, and although he has decent value as a dynasty pick, he's currently in the bottom tier of available starting centers.
Jan 5, 2022
Starting Wednesday
Robinson-Earl will start Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl is set to rejoin the starting five after missing the last three games due to the league's health and safety protocols. The 21-year-old is averaging 7.5 points and 5.8 rebounds in 22.4 minutes per game this season and should be available for his usual workload barring any conditioning concerns.
Jan 5, 2022
Listed as available
Robinson-Earl (COVID-19 protocols) is listed as available for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was initially slated to miss another game due to the league's health and safety protocols, but it appears as though he'll be back in action Wednesday. It wouldn't be surprising to see him start against Minnesota, but he could face a minutes restriction.
Dec 27, 2021
Lands in COVID-19 protocols
Robinson-Earl was placed in the league's health and safety protocols Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl was one of three players for the Thunder who landed in the league's COVID-19 protocols Monday. It's not yet clear whether he's tested positive for the virus or when he'll be able to return, but Derrick Favors, Mike Muscala and Isaiah Roby should see increased playing time in his absence.
Dec 27, 2021
Improved effort vs. Pelicans
Robinson-Earl finished Sunday's 117-112 victory over New Orleans with 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl scored in double-digits for the third straight game, a welcome sight for anyone still holding him in deeper formats. With Darius Bazley now in the health and safety protocols, Robinson-Earl figures to have a more consistent role for at least the next week. It is unlikely he touches the standard league landscape but production such as this can be worthwhile in deeper leagues.
Dec 23, 2021
Picks up production Wednesday
Robinson-Earl posted 14 points (5-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 108-94 victory over the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl came into the contest having notched double-digit scoring just once in his previous eight contests, so his 14 points against Denver were a pleasant surprise. The rookie also registered his highest rebound total in five contests to finish just one board shy of a double-double. Robinson-Earl is posting per-game averages of 7.1 points and 5.8 rebounds on the campaign.

Scores six points off bench
Robinson-Earl chipped in six points (1-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and five rebounds in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 113-110 loss to the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
The Thunder opted to roll with Derrick Favors as the starter at center, snapping a streak of 10 straight starts for Robinson-Earl. Even so, the rookie ended up seeing more minutes (Favors played 19 minutes), though in terms of fantasy stats he didn't have much to show for it. Based on recent history, there's a good chance OKC will go back to Robinson-Earl as the starter for Saturday's game against Clippers.

Logs just 18 minutes despite start
Robinson-Earl amassed five points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes during Wednesday's 110-109 win over Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl remained in the starting lineup Wednesday but once again failed to make the most of his opportunity. After a brief period of relevance, times have been tough for the rookie of late. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should probably give him another game or two before cutting bait. However, for those in shallower leagues, it is time to move on.

Flirts with double-double in loss
Robinson-Earl recorded 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 114-110 loss to the Rockets.
ANALYSIS
Robinson-Earl had himself a productive evening despite the loss, falling just one rebound short of another double-double. With Derrick Favors sidelined due to an illness, Robinson-Earl stepped into an even larger role. He has pretty much established himself as a starter for the Thunder, meaning based on opportunity alone, he is worth adding in most 12-team leagues.

ANALYSIS

ANALYSIS

Establishing consistent role
Robinson -Earl posted 16 points (6-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and a blocked shot across 26 minutes in 'Monday's 103-90 loss to the Heat.
ANALYSIS
It's only a matter of time before the talented rookie wrestles the starting role from Derrick Favors. His excellent shot-making ability gives an added dimension to the offense. At 6-8, he is a bit undersized for a regular role under the basket, but assistance from Darius Bazley could result in a solid frontcourt duo.
