Nate Robinson last played in the NBA in 2015 after signing a one-year deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, but he was released after only two games. Robinson worked out with the 76ers but even they wouldn’t give him a contract. Robinson says he still has a lot to give to the game but he’s the “most hated.”
via HypeBeast: (This interview was conducted on December 15, 2016.)
I worked out with the 76ers last week, and I was waiting on a 10-day [contact], but they gave it to someone else. So I’m just going to wait and see if other teams want to give me a chance, and if not, I’ll go overseas. Because I know I can help a team. What I bring to the table, I can help a lot of teams in the league.
LeBron was just in the news talking about the Cavs needing a point guard.
Yeah, but I don’t understand why they wouldn’t hit me up. I don’t know why they don’t like me, man. I’m the most hated.
You think so?
Most hated like Nick Young, man. He has his clothing line, Most Hated, and I need to be the face of that. Tell Swaggy P. I’m the most hated, and I don’t know how I got that wrap.
Is there any team you’d want to play for?
I’d play on any team: Philly, Cleveland, Thunder, even the Warriors need scoring off the bench. I’ll go anywhere, it doesn’t matter.
