His three wins (2006, 09, 10) are the most in NBA history and at 5 foot-9, he’s the second-shortest to ever win it.
Robinson said of the legendary 5-foot-7 Slam Dunk contest winner: “I’ve been a fan of Spud Webb since growing up.
“My father used to point out the highlights about him, being a little guy among the trees.”

As teammates, Robinson and Richardson witnessed one of the greatest home games of the Knicks – Madison Square Garden – during the 2008-09 season (Jamal Crawford had just been transferred to the Warriors a few months ago. there).
“When I was on the bench, I was like ‘this is the best seat in the house’ to sit here and watch this massacre,” Robinson recalled as he sat on the court while Kobe Bryant scored 61 points – when it was MSG’s scoring record.
“He’s actually in… Mamba mode”
