Mount St. Mary's 5'5" Guard Junior Robinson Knows He's Short—And That's What Makes Him Good

Jamion Christian found Junior Robinson by accident. It was 2013 and Christian, then in his second year as head coach at Mount St. Mary, was sitting in the bleachers at an AAU event in Suwanee, Ga., ostensibly at one court, but really looking at another court in the gym, hoping to keep people off the scent of who he was actually interested in. Christian was there for a 6’5” guard who would eventually sign with an SEC school, but quickly found the player not to his liking. So he took a glance at the court in front of him.
