Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Leads charge with double-double
Rotowire
Robinson closed with a game-high 23 points (10-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one block in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 116-86 victory over Brooklyn.
The 24-year-old center continues to take advantage of his opportunities with the Raptors.

During that stretch, he's averaging 13.0 points, 8.8 boards and 3.0 assists in 26.1 minutes a contest.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Starting Wednesday
Rotowire
Robinson is part of the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Nets, Coty Wiles of RaptorsRepublic.com reports.
Jakob Poeltl (rest) is out, and Colin Castleton wasn't brought back after his 10-day contract expired, so it'll be Robinson manning the center position Wednesday. In four starts with the Raptors, Robinson is averaging 9.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists across 25.5 minutes.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Quiet in victory
Rotowire
Robinson contributed two points (1-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist over 19 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 112-104 victory over the Wizards.
Robinson played fewer than 25 minutes for the fourth straight game, following a stretch in which he saw at least 30 minutes in three consecutive appearances. The Raptors continue to shuffle their rotation on a nightly basis, resulting in unpredictability when it comes to playing time. Colin Castleton is nearing the end of his short-term deal, and should Toronto opt to move on from him, Robinson could benefit. It's all speculation at the moment, but it is a situation worth monitoring given Robinson's per-minute upside.
Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Third straight double-double
Rotowire
Robinson posted 14 points (4-10 FG, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 34 minutes off the bench during Friday's 126-118 victory over the Jazz.
The 24-year-old center has been taking full advantage of his opportunity in the Toronto frontcourt with Jonathan Mogbo (nose) sidelined and Jakob Poeltl (rest) having his workload managed. While Colin Castleton got the start in the middle Friday, Robinson was the more productive player as he delivered his third career double-double, all of which have come in the last three games. Robinson's played more than 20 minutes in eight straight contests (two starts), averaging 10.8 points, 8.4 boards, 2.9 assists and 1.1 blocks over that span while also flashing some potential as a stretch big -- he's gone 5-for-12 from three-point range as well.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Dominant off bench Wednesday
Rotowire
Robinson finished with 25 points (9-19 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds and six assists over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 118-105 victory over the 76ers.
Robinson shifted to the bench Wednesday due to the return of Jakob Poeltl. That didn't limit Robinson's impact on the floor, as he played more minutes than Poeltl (17) while finishing second on the team in both rebounding and points. Robinson has registered a double-double in two consecutive games and will look to extend that streak to three against the Pacers on Friday.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Productive in spot start
Rotowire
Robinson logged 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and one block across 26 minutes during Monday's 119-104 victory over Washington.
Robinson got the start Monday due to the absence of Jakob Poeltl (rest), and he made the most of the opportunity. This was his first double-double of the season, and he also notched season-high marks in both points and rebounds. Robinson might see more time in the starting unit in the coming weeks, but until Poeltl is shut down for the rest of the season, Robinson's inconsistent role prevents him from having a bigger role in most fantasy formats. He's averaging 7.0 points and 7.4 rebounds per game in five outings this month.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Starting sans Poeltl
Rotowire
Robinson will start in Monday's game against Washington, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
The big man will receive the starting nod due to Jakob Poeltl (rest) being sidelined. Robinson has started in three outings this season, during which he has averaged 8.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.7 steals across 25.3 minutes per contest.

Raptors' Orlando Robinson: Decent line despite shooting woes
Rotowire
Robinson recorded seven points (3-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 25 minutes during Friday's 118-109 victory over the Jazz.
Robinson got the start at center due to the absences of Jakob Poeltl (rest) and Jonathan Mogbo (nose), and while he didn't shoot the ball particularly well, he salvaged his fantasy line by posting solid contributions in other categories. Don't expect Robinson to have a ton of upside going forward, however, as Poeltl should return to the starting lineup when Toronto takes on the Wizards on Saturday.
