SAN FRANCISCO — When making his free agency decision this summer, Warriors forward Glenn Robinson III wasn’t just looking for playing time. He made that mistake before. Instead, he prioritized a place that could utilize his talents. Disappointed after falling out of the rotation with the Detroit Pistons last season, Robinson asked his agent to reach out to the Warriors, who entertained signing him two years ago. Mutual interest led to a one-year, $1.9 million deal.
In the wake of injuries to several perimeter players, Robinson, 25, has emerged as one of Golden State’s most stable contributors, and one of the most surprising sources of extra possessions.
