Blazers PF Thomas Robinson posts 15-16 line vs. Bucks

Trail Blazers power forward Thomas Robinson scored a season-high 15 points on 5 of 8 shooting from the field and 5 of 15 shooting from the free-throw line while racking up a season-high 16 rebounds in his team's 104-97 win over the Bucks Wednesday.

Robinson had played just 76 minutes in 10 games this season before the Blazers decided to mix things up Wednesday, deactivating center Robin Lopez and thrusting Robinson into the starting lineup. The defense decided to take its chances at the charity stripe with the career 54 percent free-throw shooter and the gambit largely paid off, though the Blazers still managed the win. Robinson also had one assist, one steal and one block in his 29 minutes of action Wednesday. The Blazers' next matchup comes Friday against the Spurs.
