Duncan McBryde Robinson (born April 22, 1994) is an American college basketball player for the Michigan Wolverines who has completed his redshirt junior season for the 2016–17 team. He transferred to Michigan after leading the NCAA Division III Williams Ephs to the 2014 NCAA Men's Division III Basketball Tournament championship game. He was the 2014 Division III Rookie of the Year and a Division III All-American.
Robinson played high school basketball for The Governor's Academy before a postgraduate season at the Phillips Exeter Academy, where he led the team to a New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) Class A championship in 2013. He earned the 2013 NEPSAC Class A tournament MVP. He was a NEPSAC All-League First Team selection in both 2012 (Class B) and 2013 (Class A).
Robinson made a splash in his first season of play at Michigan. He led the Big Ten Conference in three point shooting percentage from the beginning of conference play in December until early February. In both of Michigan's wins in the 2016 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament, Robinson made three point shots to tie the score with less than a minute remaining.
Born April 22, 1994 in York, Maine, Robinson is the son of the Elisabeth and Jeffrey Robinson and the youngest of their three children (after sister Marta and brother Eli). Jeffrey, who is 6 feet (1.83 m), had played one season for the Maine Black Bears men's basketball team. Robinson grew up on the remote New Hampshire island of New Castle where his Maude H. Trefethen Elementary School 6th grade graduating class was composed of four students and he had to leave the island to continue his education. He attended Rye Junior High School and elected to attend The Governor's Academy rather than Portsmouth High School, which was the public high school for students in New Castle. Without Robinson, Portsmouth still reached four consecutive New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association final fours and won the 2012 state championship.
