Theo Pinson: a diamond in the rough with a chip on his shoulder

Posted Sep 28, 2018
Clearly, the Brooklyn Nets saw something. Whether it was during pre-draft workouts or before that, during the ACC Tournament at Barclays Center, where he had a career-best 25 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals in the quarterfinals, the Nets wanted Theo Pinson in some capacity despite not picking him at 29 or 40. They didn’t even wait until the night ended to call. (Nets Daily)
