Kevin Huerter and Trae Young already have a championship together on lock. Young keeps his prize from that victory, a gold medal, in a safe spot.
"It's locked up back home in Oklahoma,” Young said. “I definitely don't want to lose that one."
Huerter and Young teamed up long before they arrived in Atlanta. In the summer of 2016, both tried out in Colorado Springs for the US entry in the 2016 FIBA Americas Under-18 Championship before making the team and heading off for the 5-games-in-5-days event in Valdivia, Chile.
