Robinson second Razorback to hit basketball transfer portal

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — KK Robinson was never able to quite live up to his four-star rating coming out of high school.

After averaging just over six minutes a game for two seasons, he followed Chance Moore into the transfer portal Friday.

The sophomore from Bryant had two starts this year and appeared in 19 games, averaging 1.5 points per game.
