Brooklyn Nets: Theo Pinson another win for player development system

The Brooklyn Nets filled their open roster spot on Wednesday with a familiar face, converting the two-way contract of rookie Theo Pinson to a standard player contract.

The 23-year-old was undrafted last year after a solid four-year career at the University of North Carolina that included helping the Tar Heels to a national championship in 2017.

The knock on Pinson was his shooting, or lack thereof. In four seasons at Carolina, Pinson shot just 25.7 percent from the shorter collegiate 3-point line, including going just 12-for-53 in 37 games as a senior.
