After doing his due diligence by testing through the NBA Draft process over the last month, Blake Hinson announced Tuesday he will return to Pitt to play out his senior season this coming winter.
The 3-pointers from the logo will rain down, the energy and infectious personality will once again don the royal and gold No. 2, and the second-team All-ACC forward will take one more season to iron out his game before likely testing for the NBA again in one year's time.
While going through this process was a given -- and should stand as beneficial -- for Hinson in his own, personal right, let's not leave in the dust how important it is that he will take one last go-round as a Panther.
