He spent the 2006/2007 season in England where he led the British Playoff Champions with 16 ppg and 4 assist, and 2007/2008 season in Giessen Germany where he averaged 3.1 ppg in limited action. As of January 11, 2009, Robinson was averaging 16.32 ppg to go along with 3.5 apg and 3.7 rpg, and 32% on threes for NH Ostrava.

In 2014, Robinson was named head coach of the Panther Creek High School boys basketball team.[4]
