Pitt sophomore Justin Champagnie has spent this season in the national spotlight despite the struggles of the Panthers as a whole, thanks to his outstanding play. As a result, he has earned a spot on the Wooden Award watch list and is a favorite to win ACC Player of the Year honors in 2021. His name has also been listed in multiple mock drafts, but on Friday, the Pitt star indicated that he may not be bolting for the NBA after the end of the season.
During a media session, Champagnie discussed Pitt’s upcoming matchup with St. John’s in the 2021 Gotham Classic.
