DavidRobinson, born in 1965, American professional basketball player, considered one of the outstanding centers of the National Basketball Association (NBA) in the 1990s.
Robinson was an immediate success in the NBA, winning the 1990 NBA rookie of the year award as the Spurs' starting center.
Robinson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are the only players in NBA history to have led the league in points, rebounds, and blocks (although not all three categories in the same season).
With DavidRobinson's announcement earlier this year that the 2002-03 NBA season would be his last, the USA's only three-time men's basketball Olympian and one of the NBA's 50 All-Time greatest players is calling it quits.
