Versatile Pinson may be on point and with big assignments this season
Posted Oct 25, 2017
Theo Pinson will be asked to play some at point guard along with Seventh Woods and Jalek Felton in the first few games while Joel Berry recovers from a broken bone in his hand. “Theo is the best playmaker, so why not give him a chance back there to see what he can do,” Coach Roy Williams said. “With the other guys, nobody has stepped up and said, ‘this is my spot.’”
