If you’re wondering how that’s possible, Robinson keeps them in his two homes, one in New York, the other in Louisiana. He had eight rottweilers — including the eldest, a homebody named Kodak — and eventually that multiplied with puppies. There’s also a lab and a golden retriever.

Robinson, 25, used to have sugar gliders, which are essentially acrobatic possums. Sadly, Robinson’s cats killed the sugar gliders.

“I want ferrets,” he added.

Robinson started fishing off the pier at Sanders Beach at about 6 years old. He upgraded to fishing off a boat and developed a knack for catching redfish.

“I cook ’em,” he said. “Hell yeah, I grill my fish.”

Off the water, Robinson most appreciates the tunes of Morgan Wallen. “If you followed my TikTok, you’d know that,” Robinson said of his Wallen fandom.

He entered Wednesday’s game as the NBA’s top offensive rebounder at 5.8 per game, which, if upheld for the season, would only trail Moses Malone, Jayson Williams and Dennis Rodman for the most since those stats were recorded.

That’s 19 more than AD

I have a dog, I can't imagine wanting 18 more. Jesus Christ.

Robinson leads the league in Dogs PER 30

19 dogs, pets eating other pets. This is just immature irresponsibility.

Only takes one moment of escape for a rodent to meet its doom.

[–] Coltshokiefan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And immediately says he wants Ferrets after. Like dude your cats are just gonna kill them too. Keep introducing rodent pets into the house and they’re gonna keep getting hunted by the things biologically wired to hunt them down.

[–] BASEDME7O2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ferrets aren’t sugar gliders lol they would definitely hold their own against a cat

Big Country Robinson

I feel like having that many dogs defeats the point of having dogs

[–] rxs126@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m a day late here but underrated comment. He’s missing the whole point, and I don’t get the sense it’s in a good way

[–] whowasonCRACK2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If you don’t live in the same state as your pet the majority of the year, how is that your pet?

That’s just a dog that you pay some else to care for

[–] Firefoxray@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That’s like saying if you don’t live in the same state as your wife and kids, how is they your wife and kid.

People on this sub are crazy haters

[–] shotbyspartacus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

5.8 offensive rebounds per game is insane. Put him on the all defensive team

[–] NoAcanthisitta9198@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is an irresponsible amount of dogs, this isn't a cool thing

[–] lets_talk_basketball@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Random: but I remember back in the day when they had sports illustrated for kids, there was an article about Zach Randolph having snakes. He said he had to give them up because his python used to routinely get out of his tank and just roam around the house. I would piss myself if something that could kill me just got out while I was asleep.

[–] Drak_is_Right@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

My cousin had to get rid of his python for that reason. She was a rather large reticulated (i think 14' when he got rid of her) with a love for escape attempts. She was chill with him, but aggressive with his wife and daughter.

SI For Kids is goated

[–] confuddly@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

When is Mrob gonna start getting All-Nba Defense chatter? It's 11 games into the season and only Gobert has been better

[–] zuqkfplmehcuvrjfgu@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

His favorite singer is Morgan Wallen and he has 19 dogs? Sounds about right.

[–] timothyjenkins21@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dude sounds dumb as shit honestly

[–] MintyFreshBreathYo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Isn’t Morgan Wallen the dude who was filmed using the n word?

[–] SevenHunnet3Hi5s@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

i live in the same town as mitch did/does. it’s funny how much he stays down here considering he plays for literal new york city. like it’s not even new orleans that he stays around the most it’s this small town about 15 minutes away. the town has been a mess lately (or really for years now) but it is quite the place if you like to hunt, fish, and listen to country music down the road and take care of your 19 dogs.

[–] HotdogIsaSandwitch@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn, sugar gliders story is hella sad

[–] Drak_is_Right@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

One of the best fake videos on the internet involves a sugar glider (guy tosses it into the air, hawk snatches it as its flying back to his hand).

How to become my favourite NBA player

[–] atlas_queefed@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They forgot to mention his upcoming collaboration with Tobias Funke: “The Dog Inside of Me”, to be published next week

[–] CheetahSperm18@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He got ~~that~~ dawgs ~~in him~~

[–] ClutchGamingGuy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

he let his sugar gliders be killed and likes that racist clown Morgan Wallen's music. i actually like him a lot less after reading this.

[–] math-yoo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He's a real Mitchell north of Richmond.

[–] A_Vizzle@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Everybody wants to be “country” so bad nowadays

[–] yojoman@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The hate here is weird. Those dogs are probably living better than me

[–] Impossible_Oil8884@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Fuckin wholesome man, a breather from those toxic wannabes.

[–] The_Notorious_Donut@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This man is a winner if I’ve ever seen one

[–] Carni-V-oreX@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

(1)9 dogs are easier to take care of than one

[–] TruthFreesYou@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I hope nothing happens to him. He seems vulnerable. Hope he has good people to protect him.
