Pitt men’s basketball fans, have you seen Carlton “Bub” Carrington (No. 7) in person? The Baltimore native already has two ACC Rookie of the Week honors and became the first Pitt player to earn conference Rookie of the Week honors in consecutive weeks since former Schenley High School hoop star DeJuan Blair did so in the Big East in the 2007-08 season.

Meanwhile, Ishmael Leggett (No. 5) is a junior playing for Pitt, an integral part of Pittsburgh’s high-scoring offense. Leggett averages 15 points per game.

Pitt’s next games are Dec. 6 at West Virginia, and Saturday, Dec. 9, at home against Canisius. On Saturday, Dec. 16, the Panthers play host to HBCU South Carolina State.

Overall, Pitt looks to go to a second consecutive NCAA Tournament, but that’s months away. First things first, the year 2024 will bring a fierce ACC schedule Pitt’s way.
