Chicago Bulls Draft Profile Overview: Amir Hinton

The Chicago Bulls draft 38th overall and depending on how the end of the first round shakes out, there might be a more solid and experienced option at 38; as most view Hinton more of a project.

Nonetheless, his instant scoring ability and managing to create his own shots no matter where he’s at on the floor will translate to the pros, but the rest of his game labels him as a low-risk-high-reward player.

If he fails to be drafted, the Bulls are one of several teams that will certainly give Hinton a chance in the Summer and G-League.

I had the opportunity to cover Hinton at Lock Haven University from a conference office perspective, and it was clear he belonged to be playing with higher competition.

The Philadelphia native shined as a redshirt freshman averaging 23.8 points, lead the conference in scoring, won PSAC Freshman of the Year and First-Team All-Conference all in his first collegiate season.
