Sixers G League affiliate, Blue Coats, claim Justin Robinson off waivers

The Delaware Blue Coats acquire Justin Robinson from the Capital City Go-Go.

While the Philadelphia 76ers continue their brief three-game road trip, their G League affiliate made a move. The Delaware Blue Coats claimed Justin Robinson off waivers from the Capital City Go-Go, the affiliate of the Washington Wizards.

Robinson played 18 games with the Go-Go and averaged 14.2 points and 6.3 assists and he scored in double-figures for all, but two of those games. He also played nine games with the Wizards and he averaged 1.4 points and he made three of his five attempts from deep over those games.

In a corresponding move, the Blue Coats had to waive Philadelphia product, Isaiah Miles who went to St. Joseph’s. He averaged 6.1 points and 2.2 rebounds in 11 games for Delaware and he saw some preseason action with the Sixers.

While the Blue Coats will continue to focus on the development of young players Zhaire Smith and Marial Shayok, it helps to have more talent in the system. Robinson can offer more scoring and shooting from the perimeter.

He will be available for Delaware’s next matchup with the Memphis Hustle on Wednesday. [lawrence-related id=23996,23985,23978]
