Pinson is a senior but will use his one remaining year of eligibility due to COVID-19 elsewhere. He entered the transfer portal last month after LSU’s head coach Will Wade was fired.
Coming out of high school, Pinson was considered a consensus three-star recruit. He played at Simeon before choosing Missouri over scholarship offers from Dayton, DePaul, Georgetown, Memphis, and Wisconsin.
