Thus, Pinkney had to pursue his professional basketball career in Europe, where he played for Clermont in France and PGE Turow in Poland. After a lackluster performance overseas, Pinkney returned to the United States and secured a roster spot on the summer league entry for the Portland Trail Blazers. He averaged 5.5 points, 3 rebounds and 2.8 assists during limited summer league minutes but did not make the team. The Washington Wizards signed Pinkney as an extra body for train ...
