Pistons’ Duncan Robinson shares his Mexico City experience: ‘This is a special place’

MEXICO CITY — Duncan Robinson, wearing a long-sleeved gray shirt, white shorts, and black Nikes, took the initiative to break down a huddle with kids after hosting a Jr. NBA and Jr. WNBA clinic alongside Pistons teammates Javonte Green and Daniss Jenkins.

But instead of speaking his native language of English, Robinson orchestrated the huddle in Spanish. He revealed that he learned to speak Spanish during his time in Venezuela, as well as picking up the lingo from a few of his friends. The clinic celebrated the grand opening of the newly renovated community basketball court at Deportivo Azcapotzalco. The project was a collaborative effort among the Pistons, the Dallas Mavericks, the NBA, the National Basketball Players Association and Project Backboard as part of the 2025 NBA Mexico City
