Bucks waive two-way center Liam Robbins

Robbins didn’t see much action at the NBA level this season, appearing in 13 games and totaling 57 minutes, nine points and 12 rebounds. He played more in the G League with the Bucks’ affiliate Wisconsin Herd, averaging 20.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.8 blocks while shooting 47.1% from the field.

The 7’0″ center went undrafted out of Vanderbilt in 2023, catching on a training camp deal with the Pelicans. However, he suffered a stress fracture in camp with New Orleans and was waived ahead of the season.

He’s currently dealing with a groin strain and hasn’t played for either the Bucks or Herd since Jan. 25. Two-way contracts can’t be signed after March 4, so the Bucks are likely clearing a spot to add a healthier player.

After waiving Robbins, the Bucks will have two players on two-way deals: Ryan Rollins and Stanley Umude. They’ll have one open two-way slot to fill once this transaction is complete. The Bucks could look to promote a player who’s already playing for their G League team or they can look elsewhere.
