The Pitt Panthers' star freshman has officially declared for the NBA Draft.
PITTSBURGH -- Pitt Panthers star Bub Carrington made his intentions clear earlier this month and this week, he made it official.
Carrington, who played one sensational season at Pitt, has officially declared the 2024 NBA Draft. His name appeared on a release from NBA CommunicationsCarrington's season got off to as hot a start as possible, with him notching a triple-double in his first career collegiate game.
Carrington finished the season averaging 13.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists to just 1.9 turnovers per game while shooting 41% from the field and 32% from 3-point range. He closed the season especially strong, averaging 18.8 points 5.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game while shooting 48% from 3-point range over his final six games, including a 24-point outburst against then-No. 4 North Carolina in the ACC Tournament semifinals.
Carrington's draft stock has been widely debated. He's young with fantastic size for his position and after a hot start to his freshman season, began to appear in mock drafts as a potential first-round selection and perhaps even a lottery pick. His stock ebbed and flowed throughout the year and as it stands now, he could remain in that first round conversation or fall to the second round by some estimations.
But there is enough potential for Carrington to feel it was worth leaving school early. Now with the semester over, so is his Pitt career.
