David Robinson joined the San Antonio Spurs in 1989 and played 14 stellar seasons with the franchise. Known as “The Admiral” for his disciplined play and Navy background, Robinson averaged 21.1 points, 10.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 3 blocks per game in 987 games. He was a focal point on both ends of the floor—a scoring machine, elite rim protector, and defensive anchor for the Spurs' rise.
Robinson’s career was decorated with accolades: two NBA championships (1999, 2003), ten All-Star selections, the 1995 NBA MVP award, and four NBA All-Defensive First Team honors. His leadership was crucial in turning the Spurs into a perennial championship contender. He was known for highlight dunks, clutch performances, and unmatched versatility at 7'1".
Beyond individual stats and awards, Robinson’s impact extended to mentoring future stars like Tim Duncan, helping establish the Spurs' dynasty. His jersey No. 50 was retired by the Spurs, honoring his iconic career and lasting legacy.
