ATLANTA – The Atlanta Dream of the WNBA announced Monday, April 13, the signing of former Drury Lady Panther Paige Robinson to a training camp contract.
 
Robinson concluded a historic career at Drury, where her final season came in 2021-22. She earned NCAA Division II Player of the Year honors during the 2020-21 season and helped lead the Lady Panthers to a 123-8 record during her career. Drury captured four Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) championships, two regional titles, two Final Four appearances, and a national championship game appearance in 2020-21. Robinson was a four-time First Team All-GLVC selection, a two-time GLVC Tournament MVP, and the Midwest Regional Tournament MVP in 2021.
 
Following graduation, Robinson transferred to Illinois State for the 2022-23 season. In her lone year with the Redbirds, she earned both Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year and Newcomer of the Year honors, becoming just the second player in league history to accomplish the feat, joining Kareema Williams.
 
Despite shortened seasons due to COVID-19 and injury, Robinson surpassed 2,000 career points at Drury and set a program record with 271 three-pointers made. At the time of her graduation, she was the only Lady Panther in program history to rank in the top 12 in career points (2,016), rebounds (451), assists (344), steals (190), and three-pointers (271).
 
Robinson was selected 31st overall in the 2023 WNBA Draft by the Dallas Wings and has since played professionally overseas, including time with IDK Euskotren in Spain's Liga Femenina Endesa and Herner TC in Germany.
 
Robinson will report to training camp with Atlanta on April 19. The Dream will open preseason play April 29 in Chicago against the Chicago Sky.
