This past year, Pitt had one former player compete in the NBA Combine: Bub Carrington. Blake Hinson also competed in the G-League Elite Camp ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft.
The Panthers re-loaded the roster (although most of it was done by spring) with new players Brandin “Beebah” Cummings, Amdy Ndiaye. Amsal Delalic, Cam Corhen, and Damian Dunn. The newcomers joined the team months ago, and despite no foreign tour this year, seemed to gel just fine at the numerous events that the program held over the summer months, namely The Basketball Tournament.
The Panthers’ 2024-25 season begins on Nov. 4 against the Radford Highlanders at the Petersen Events Center. With the newcomers listed above as well as returners Jaland Lowe, Ishmael Leggett, Guillermo Diaz Graham, and others, Pitt is looking to make a run back to this year’s NCAA Tournament after missing out on last year’s “big dance.”
After falling to North Carolina in the ACC Tournament, Jeff Capel’s team did not accept an offered bid to the National Invitational Tournament (NIT), abruptly ending its season.
