Ex-Bull Nate Robinson dribbles between defender's legs to elude double-team

Nate Robinson is trying to get back on the Bulls or find any landing spot in the NBA, and he's willing to go over — or under — any hurdle to get there.

You read that right: under.

Playing for the NBA Development League's Delaware 87ers, the 5-foot-9 Robinson dribbled through the legs of 7-2 Raptors 905 center Edy Tavares on Saturday. Not just the ball. Himself.

Robinson pulled off a similar feat while playing for the Bulls in a game in Phoenix on Nov. 14, 2012. Suns point guard Sebastain Telfair ran at Robinson on the perimeter and leaped to block him, but Robinson ran underneath him, clipping his head on Telfair's thigh before running the baseline for a layup.

Robinson last played an NBA game for the Pelicans in October 2015 and has been on a campaign to return to the pros, openly courting the Bulls and Cavaliers earlier this year.
