Rookie walls are like unicorns to Allonzo Trier. They don’t exist.
“That’s like a fairy tale,’’ Trier said. “A myth to me.’’
The undrafted rookie fell into a deep tailspin after he signed a fresh two-year contract in mid-December, but he has since resuscitated his season.
In his past six games, the 23-year-old Trier has been spectacular, averaging 15.7 points on 55.8 percent shooting, including 50 percent
from beyond the 3-point line.
His play had wavered since late December, and Trier says it was more mental than physical. The Arizona product was figuring out new defenses and a new way of sharing the ball.
