Theo Pinson talking his way into a big role at UNC
Posted Nov 12, 2015
Theo Pinson is the best defensive player UNC has returning, and on paper, he’s a natural fit to fill the hole left by J.P. Tokoto. He has rehabbed his broken foot this offseason after surgery, and he’s tweaked his shooting stroke to give him a quicker and more accurate release. But his hands and feet may be less important than his mouth — at least for UNC this season.
