The Golden State Warriors have signed forward Blake Hinson to an Exhibit 10 contract, according to NBA insider Michael Scotto.
Hinson, 24, was on a two-way deal with the Los Angeles Lakers earlier this offseason but was waived in mid-September.
He chose the Warriors over several other teams, hoping to make an impact with the championship-caliber franchise.
Hinson went undrafted in the 2024 NBA Draft after a standout college career.
In his final season at Pittsburgh, he averaged 18.5 points per game and shot an impressive 42.1% from beyond the arc.
Before his time at Pittsburgh, Hinson played for Ole Miss and Iowa State, navigating through multiple transfers in his college career.
At Ole Miss, he averaged 10.1 points and 4.6 rebounds during his sophomore season before entering the NCAA transfer portal.
His stint at Iowa State was interrupted by an unspecified medical condition, leading him to miss his first season with the Cyclones.
After leaving Iowa State, Hinson found success at Pittsburgh, earning second-team All-ACC honors in his first season with the team.
In his final season at Pitt, Hinson made first-team All-ACC and set a school record with 110 made three-pointers.
His scoring and shooting efficiency helped Pittsburgh become one of the top teams in the ACC.
