A player who got very little run on varsity as a Junior, Hines is one of the most improved players in Ohio’s 2025 class. A solid rim protector who has also added muscle to provide extra rebounding and post defense, Hines can defend on the interior or switch onto guards on the perimeter. Offensively Hines is still a work in progress but he rebounds it well and has the right idea when catching the basketball. I could see Hines using a JUCO or post grad program to get stronger and more ready for the college level but his trajectory is pointing upwards.
