“I can go get coffee. I can maybe make a shot. I can talk to somebody. I can watch your dog. I just want to be a part of the program.”

Blake Hinson said that after the Jazz’s preseason opener. He’d just scored 14 points on 5/8 shooting, 4/5 from three, with 6 rebounds in 17 minutes of a 109–97 win in Denver. Last season, on a two-way, he averaged 11.9 points and shot 46.8% from deep in 14 games. 

Blake Hinson didn’t get drafted. He went from Ole Miss to Iowa State to Pitt, then through the G League in Santa Cruz and Rip City, before the Jazz gave him a two-way in February. Still fighting for a real spot.

That’s the part that sticks. The league is full of guys on two-ways and Exhibit 10s who can score in the G League and still might be gone by opening night. The ones who last usually aren’t the loudest. They’re the ones who treat the margins like the job. Coffee, film, a rebound nobody is boxing out for, a shot when it’s open. Respect to Hinson, and to every young player still trying to make their mark the same way.
