Theo Pinson a natural to succeed J.P. Tokoto
Posted Nov 13, 2015
Theo Pinson is not J.P. Tokoto. The comparisons between the UNC wings are striking. Both feature 6-foot-6 frames and weigh 200 pounds, and each sports elite athleticism and a penchant for playmaking. So when Tokoto declared for the NBA Draft in April, Pinson seemed a natural fit for the vacated starter spot. “He’s pretty close to as athletic as J.P. was,” junior guard Nate Britt said.
