Get to Know: Trae Young

Luka Doncic is the European mystery, Michael Porter Jr. has superstar talent with injury concerns and Trae Young is the shooter with unlimited range but physical questions.

In the case of Young, the 6’2” 180-pound freshman is projected to be a Top-10 pick with range almost near the midcourt logo. He had the college basketball world buzzing with buckets, assists and the ultimate green light he was given for the Sooners.

Young finished his historical freshman season leading the nation in points (27.4) and assists (8.8) on 42 percent shooting. Despite the Sooners disappointing finish to the season, he was consensus First-Team All-American, BIG 12 Player of the Year and took home the Wayman Tisdale Award.
