LOS ANGELES — Someone was asking Thomas Robinson about the way he helps the young Lakers.
Thomas Robinson is 25 years old.
“Most people think I’m at least three years older,” he said. “Most people think I’m 28 or 30.”
In NBA mileage, he might be. He was the No. 5 pick in the 2012 NBA draft after three 6ears at Kansas. The Lakers are his sixth place of NBA residence in that time.
In one sense, that means six teams wanted him, but Robinson was out there as a free agent when the Lakers picked him up.
