Erik Spoelstra consistently draws up plays for Robinson to get open looks. He averaged 13.1 points and ended up sixth on the team in scoring.
He played 31.4 minutes last season, which ranked third on the team. He played more minutes per game than everyone on the team outside of Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo.
Robinson is very clearly important to the Heat, and fans everywhere love him. With all that in mind, how much should Miami pay to retain him?
He has been making the league minimum for the past few seasons and is now set to hit the free agent market this summer. It is the first time Robinson will be set up to make some big-time money.
