The family-owned firm is a preferred supplier to 15 of the NBA’s Arenas and 22 of its training and practice facilities. Of the last 27 NBA Championships contested, 22 were won by teams who play and train on Robbins floors. They include the legendary LA Lakers, sixteen-time winners of the NBA Championship.
