One of the most successful centers in basketball history, 'The Admiral' - as Robinson was called by fans and critics alike - played center for the San Antonio Spurs for his entire NBA career from 1989 to 2003. Selected with the #1 overall pick by the Spurs in 1987, Robinson served out his Navy tour of duty of 2 years before debuting in the league and becoming an instant success.
A ten-time All-Star, Robinson was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2009 along with Michael Jordan, John Stockton and Jerry Sloan. Through the course of his 14-year career, Robinson tallied $116 million in NBA career salary.
Since retiring, Robinson has launched two private equity funds. The first fund, Admiral Capital, raised $115 million after being launched in 2007. That fund eventually went on to acquire $350 million worth of real estate assets. He launched his second fund in 2015, with the goal of raising $175 million to again invest in real estate. He is also committed to giving back to the community, and uses 10% of his bottom line to fund a variety of charities as well as having established a school similar to the LeBron James Foundation school.
