Once A Blazer, Always A Blazer — Cliff Robinson, ‘Uncle Spliffy,’ Starting A Pot-Growing Business In Oregon

Not only was he known as Uncle Cliffy for five NBA teams (most notably the Trail Blazers from 1989-97), but he was also a contestant on Survivor Palaui. But now there’s another major credit for former NBA All-Star (1994) Cliff Robinson.

Those who followed his career know that he also had another nickname with the Phoenix Suns — Uncle Spliffy. And he’s now made that official with his new role as a “cannabis advocate” and weed growing business in Portland, Ore.

The business will open later this year. And Robinson, 49, and will be a featured speaker at the Cannabis Collaborative Conference on Feb.
