Robinson played point guard. He played for Montaña in the PBL and was then signed as a free agent by Yeng Guiao in 2003 to play for Red Bull Thunder as a backup point guard.

After the 2008 PBA Fiesta Conference ended, the Red Bull Barako waived him. He was immediately signed by the Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants for the 2008-09 PBA season.[1] During the 2010 PBA Fiesta Conference, he was signed by Alaska. He also first played for the San Juan Knights in the MBA.

Robinson was named coach of the RnW Pacific Pipes team in the PBA D-League during the 2011 PBA D-League Foundation Cup, leading the team to the quarterfinals.[2] In June 2011, Robinson was named coach of the San Sebastian Stags. After the Stags lost to the San Beda Red Lions in the Finals of the NCAA Season 87, Robinson led the Stags to the 2011 Philippine Collegiate Championship, beating the 4-time UAAP champions and 2-time Philippine Collegiate Championship champions the Ateneo Blue Eagles in 2 games.[3] In 2012, he returned to PBA as he joined the Alaska Aces as an assistant coach to Luigi Trillo and Alex Compton from 2012-2017.[citation needed]
