Chris Hines gives Drake a burst of scoring and shot-making
In the 2012-13 season, Chris Hines was a microwave scorer for Drake, posting 56 points over his last five games and a career-high 23 points against Illinois State while also contributing steals, assists, and a sturdy 26.8 minutes per game. The big differentiator: he was already production-ready after a delayed start from a right leg injury, which says something about his toughness and timing, not just his box score. If a team wants a guard who can heat up fast, make winning plays, and bring veteran poise, Hines absolutely earns a hard look.
