Coming off the heels of an incredibly productive junior season at Boston College, guard Jerome Robinson has officially declared for the 2018 NBA Draft.

After compiling a stellar junior campaign this year, one which saw him being named First-Team All-ACC, Boston College guard Jerome Robinson is taking his talents to the NBA, having declared for the 2018 NBA Draft.

It’s an incredible turn in the North Carolina native’s journey to this point as a player, considering he came in as the 308th recruit in his class, per 247 Sports’ recruiting rankings.

In fact, Boston College were the only D-1 school to extend a scholarship offer to Robinson during his recruitment process, an opportunity he jumped to lock down before the start of his senior season in high school back in the fall of 2014.

As fate would have it, Robinson caught the eyes of Eagles assistant coach Scott Spinelli months earlier before his decision to attend Boston College was minted.

Spinelli, who coincidentally played a key factor in recruiting Milwaukee Bucks swingman Khris Middleton to Texas A&M University during his time in College Station, saw a lot of similarities between the two as Joe Giglio of the News Observer wrote earlier this year:

"“He wasn’t putting up big numbers but you could see something in him that could be special,” Spinelli said. “We were lucky what we saw in Jerome has come true.” Spinelli recruited Khris Middleton, a taller shooting guard, to Texas A&M. He said Robinson reminded him of Middleton, who is now in his fifth season with the Milwaukee Bucks.”"

While Robinson had to endure plenty of ups and downs during his time in New England, both on an individual and team level, his breakout season this year played a big factor in helping lead the Eagles to their first winning campaign in seven seasons.

So without further ado, let’s break down what Jerome Robinson has to offer, areas of his game he has to improve in, see how draft experts rate him at this stage in the process and evaluate his potential fit with the Milwaukee Bucks.
