In July 2017, Hill signed a contract with the Star Hotshots of the Philippine Basketball Association as their import for the 2017 PBA Governors' Cup. Hill averaged 26 ppg, 11.7 rpg and 3 apg while with the Hotshots. In September 2017, Hill signed with the Telekom Baskets Bonn of the German Basketball Bundesliga.

In June 2015, Hill was among the 22 players who earned an invitation to the training camp for the 2015 U.S. Pan American Men's Basketball team at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Competition took place July 21–25 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, however Hill was not selected for the final roster.

Hill made his first start, along with fellow freshman Kendrick Nunn, for the Fighting Illini on February 9, 2014, against Penn State, scoring 11 points and helping the team end an 8-game losing streak. On January 7, 2015, Hill scored a career-high 28 points as a sophomore to lead the Fighting Illini to a win at home against 11th-ranked Maryland when Illinois' leading scorer Rayvonte Rice was sidelined with a broken hand. As a junior, Hill was named one of ten finalists for the 2016 Jerry West Award which is awarded by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame to the best collegiate shooting guard in the United States. In a double-overtime loss to Penn State at the end of the 2015–16 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season, Hill set another career high scoring 39 points. Hill's 39 points were the most since Brandon Paul scored 43 points against Ohio State in 2012 and the seventh most points scored by an Illini player in program history. Following his junior season, Hill became the only Illinois basketball player to record 600 points, 200 rebounds and 100 assists in a single season. On Nov. 13, 2016, Hill bested that career mark with 40 points in a 79-64 victory over Northern Kentucky. Following his senior season, Hill was invited to participate in the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament, which is held annually in Portsmouth, Virginia to showcase college basketball's best seniors.

During the summer of 2012, Hill was diagnosed with Thoracic outlet syndrome, and underwent surgery to repair the blood clot in his upper right arm. Hill took several months to recover from the operation, however he made a full recovery.

Following his junior season in which he averaged 23.8 points and shot 44% from three-point range, Hill verbally committed to Illinois and former head coach Bruce Weber on September 12, 2011. Prior to verbally committing, Hill listed Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio State, Providence, UCLA, Xavier, and Wisconsin as the other schools he had considered.
