Pitt head coach Jeff Capel and his staff have been on the hunt for frontcourt reinforcements for the better part of a year, and on Tuesday, they appeared to make some progress on that front, as they hosted Eric Hamilton, a 6’9”, 250-pound power forward, according to Mike Vukovcan of Pittsburgh Sports Now.
Hamilton most recently played at UNC Greensboro, where he averaged 6.1 points and 4.4 rebounds over 16.3 minutes per game during the 2018-19 season. He appeared in 36 games and started in seven. Prior to that, he played at Wichita State from 2015 to 2017 but filled a less prominent role.
