Justin Robinson Heads to Sweden with Uppsala

By Sam Neter on March 3, 2013

Justin Robinson was the other Brit to make a move at the transfer deadline (alongside Myles Hesson), as he signed with Swedish contenders Uppsala Basket.

Robinson, who was with Ukrainian Superleague side BC Kyiv (7-26), comes in to replace their former point guard Rhys Carter who moved to Australia earlier in the season.

The 6’2″ guard is averaging 10.7 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists on the season with Kyiv, tying his season high with 20 points in his final game there.

Uppsala are currently second in the Basketligan with a 23-8 record. In his debut on Friday, Robinson finished with 6 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists and 6 steals in 21 minutes as Uppsala routed Eco Orebro 91-55.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
