Scottie Pippen was a six-time champion who played alongside Michael Jordan during a decade of dominance in the 1990s.

The younger Pippen was a 3-star prospect in the class of 2019, and wasted little time making an impact.

He was named to the All-SEC First Team in both his second and third seasons at Commodores, and averaged more than 20 points a night in each of them.

During his final collegiate season, Pippen averaged 20.4 points, 4.5 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.9 steals per game while shooting 41.6% from the field and 34.5% from three-point range.

It was hard to blame Pippen for the lack of overall team success considering he still put up such impressive numbers while drawing plenty of attention from opposing defenses, and the Commodores at least finished with a winning record this past season for the first time since the 2016-17 campaign.

Pippen may have his work cut out for him in the predraft process if he is going to be drafted.

The most recent two-round mock draft by Bleacher Report did not include the Vanderbilt product.
