The combo guard from Pittsburgh has shown real flashes of shooting and distribution. What kind of year should fans expect?
Carlton "Bub" Carrington, a 6-foot-4 combo guard who played for Pittsburgh last season, announced his intention to enter the NBA Draft after initially saying he would be foregoing the pros in order to play another collegiate season.
On the year, he put up 13.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game. Though he didn't have elite shooting numbers, just 41.2% from the field and 32.1% from three, he finished the year strong, with three of his last five games consisting of over 20 points and over 50% from the field. Scoring isn't the only attraction with Carrington, though; he is a legitimate distributor, averaging 4.1 dimes to 1.9 turnovers per game. For a freshman lead initiator with a usage rate of 23%, having an assist rate of 24% is really impressive – especially when compared to his turnover rate of 13%.
