Scout Report
Standing 6-5 with legitimate scoring ability from the perimeter, this Texas product has quickly adapted to the college level after a productive high school career.
Background
Hailing from Wolfforth, Texas, Pinkins developed his game at Wolfforth Frenship High School where he established himself as one of the top shooting guards in the state. Ranked #87 nationally in the 2025 recruiting class, he caught the attention of college programs with his combination of size and shooting touch. His journey from West Texas to the SEC represents a significant step up in competition level.
Playing Style
Pinkins brings prototypical size for a modern shooting guard with his 6-5 frame, allowing him to shoot over smaller defenders and create mismatches. His offensive game centers around perimeter shooting, where he displays consistent mechanics and range that extends beyond the arc. At the college level, he's working to expand his ability to attack closeouts and create his own shot off the dribble. His length provides defensive versatility, though he continues to adjust to the physicality and speed of SEC competition.
Recruitment
Now enrolled at Ole Miss, Pinkins has transitioned from recruit to college player as he works to carve out a role in the Rebels' rotation. His development during his freshman season will be crucial in determining his long-term impact in the program. The combination of his shooting ability and size gives him the tools to contribute meaningfully as he gains experience.

Pryce Pinkins (‘28 MS) Keeps this ball fair down the line for a lead-off double. Does a nice job controlling the body for the adjustment to pitch location w/ quick hands thru the zone. #WWBA @PG_DeepSouth https://t.co/Jq4wwT8vuN

One of my greatest joys as a coach is teaching young men new life skills. Watch our freshman @TylisJordan learn how to ride a bike for the first time. “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” -Albert Einstein https://t.co/7h2Gw21kRn
