Nate will not report to camp and could soon part ways with the team.

Thunder general manager Sam Presti and Robinson's agent, Aaron Goodwin, mutually agreed it would be best for Robinson to remain in his native Seattle rather than join the team. Robinson, who was acquired in the midseason trade that sent Jeff Green and Nenad Krstic to Boston in exchange for Kendrick Perkins, was faced with not being in coach Scott Brooks' rotation for a second season. Rather than force Robinson to join the team, all parties involved decided to split now while the two sides seek a long-term solution.

“They don't plan on using him in their rotation, and we wanted to see if we could find a better opportunity somewhere else,” Goodwin told The Oklahoman.
