Productive off bench Hamilton logged 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 26 minutes in Thursday's 84-73 loss to Michigan.
Impact Hamilton has served in a depth role in five of the last six contests, but he's seen consistent playing time early in the season regardless of his role. He matched his highest scoring total of the season with 15 points in Thursday's loss and is now averaging 8.8 points and 3.1 rebounds over 21.6 minutes per game through the first 10 matchups of the year.

Scores 13 in starting role Hamilton tallied 13 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists over 25 minutes in Sunday's 79-61 win over Mount St. Mary's.
Impact Hamilton worked out of the starting five Sunday for the second time in his first three games with the Terrapins, and he was one of five starters to put up double figures on the scoreboard. Donta Scott also saw plenty of playing time off the bench while leading the team in scoring, and neither player appears to have solidified themselves as the starting power forward yet.

Back in starting five Hamilton is moving back into the starting lineup, replacing Donta Scott, for Sunday's game against Mount. St. Mary's, Emily Giambalvo of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Hamilton started the season opener but was then moved to the bench for the following game. Hamilton played one less minute in the second game but had a better outing with six points and five rebounds. It's clear Hamilton may not have a firm grasp on the starting power forward spot and will need to maintain consistency and continue to grow in a new program after he transferred to Maryland back in April.

Waiver status in question Hamilton's chances of receiving a waiver from the NCAA for immediate eligibility in 2020-21 remain uncertain, Jordan Gold of 247 Sports reports.
Impact While Hamilton wouldn't typically be immediately eligible as an undergrad transfer, waivers have become more prevalent than ever before this year, and his status was once thought to be in good shape. After a few weeks passed, Hamilton's chances are now "extremely murky" according to the report. The 6-8 forward nearly averaged double figures last season, and would immediately contend for the starting power forward role if deemed eligible.
