Bub Carrington Works Out with Current Pitt Team Following NBA Summer League

Last week, former Pitt guard Bub Carrington returned to Pittsburgh to check out The Basketball Tournament.

Carrington hung out with his former Panther teammates and met the new players on the team. The Baltimore, Maryland native stood on the baseline with the current Panthers and cheered on Zoo Crew while there.

While he was back, he also worked out with the team. Check out the photos below, shared by the Pitt men’s basketball program.

Carrington finished NBA Summer League action with the following averages across his five games: 15.8 points per game, 7.4 rebounds per game, and 5.2 assists per game. He earned Second Team All-Summer League honors with his performance throughout the schedule in Vegas. Wednesday night’s appearance was his first at a TBT game this week, while Champagnie and Hinson have each been at all three games that Zoo Crew has hosted.

Carrington started 33 games for Pitt as a rookie, averaging 13.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game. The Baltimore, Maryland native shot 41% from the field and 32% from three-point range in his freshman campaign, and alongside Jaland Lowe and Ishmael Leggett, starred for the Panthers in the back court.

In his final game of the summer league stint, Carrington filled up the stat sheet. In a win over the Bucks, the Wizards clinched a 3-2 Summer League record and Carrington contributed 13 points, 15 rebounds, and five assists.

“What I love about his game today? 15 rebounds & 5 assists,” Wizards’ head coach Cody Toppert said about Carrington’s final performance in the NBA Summer League. “I think that’s huge. That just tells you the type of guy he is. He’s gritty, he can grab-and-go on the defensive glass…He’s the guy that just loves those big moments.”
