The Bucks have waived two-way center Liam Robbins, per NBA.com’s transaction log. Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link) first reported the move.
Robbins was converted to a two-way contract after impressing in camp this past summer on an Exhibit 10 deal. The 25-year-old rookie didn’t see much action at the NBA level this season, appearing in 13 games and totaling 57 minutes, nine points, and 12 rebounds.
Robbins played more in the G League with the Bucks’ affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, averaging 20.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game while shooting 47.1% from the field.
The 7’0″ center went undrafted out of Vanderbilt in 2023, catching on with the Pelicans on a training camp deal. However, he suffered a stress fracture in camp with New Orleans and was waived ahead of the season.
Robbins is currently dealing with a groin strain and hasn’t played for either the Bucks or Herd since Jan. 25.
After waiving Robbins, the Bucks will have two players on two-way deals: Ryan Rollins and Stanley Umude. Two-way contracts can’t be signed after March 4, so Milwaukee will likely look to a healthier player in the coming days. The Bucks could promote a player who’s already playing for their G League team or could target a player outside of the organization.
They need to bring in Anthony Davis.
Or Dale Davis.
