ORLANDO, Fla. — After the Pacers played two Summer League games, they had the Fourth of July to themselves. Before relaxing and hanging out with friends, Glenn Robinson III met me in the hotel lobby to record this episode of the Vigilant Sports Pacers Podcast.
Appearing in 45 games last season, GRIII averaged 3.8 points and 1.5 rebounds per game.
The Pacers signed Robinson III last season to a three-year deal with only a little more than one season guaranteed. The Gary, Indiana native and Michigan product has the athleticism and skill to be a rotational guy in the NBA, and for the 22-year-old it’s about becoming a well-rounded player.
In the middle of the podcast, Kevin Durant announced his intention to sign with the Golden State Warriors — which allowed for a fun, live reaction from both Glenn and I.

In this podcast, you’ll learn more about who he is, what makes him tick … and what he enjoys doing away from basketball. Thanks again to Glenn for joining the podcast.
