Arkansas hosted one of the state’s top sophomores, guard Joseph Pinion, for an unofficial visit on Saturday.
Like most Arkansas visits, the highlight was recreating a famous photo of NBA stars with Coach Eric Musselman. Pinion played the role of LeBron James dunking over former guard Jason Terry in a photo shoot that took about five minutes,
“It was really fun because he’s a fun guy, but he’s also like serious,” Pinion said of Musselman. “He took it real serious whenever we were taking those pictures. He takes it so serious it makes you laugh.”
Pinion, 6-5, 175 pounds, of Morrilton, has early scholarship offers from Oral Roberts, South Alabama and Central Arkansas while drawing interest from Arkansas, Baylor, Tulsa, Vanderbilt, Virginia, Belmont and Liberty.
