When thinking about Trevor Stanback, legendary basketball coach Red Auerbach famous axiom — “you can’t coach height” — comes to mind.
The 6-foot-10 Stanback is a 4-star recruit from Maranatha High School in Pasadena, California. He brings a ton of length to Palo Alto and has even speculated that he isn’t done growing. Combine his height, his athleticism to run the floor, rim protection and a decent touch around the basket and you get a highly recruited prospect.
Stanback selected Stanford’s offer over Connecticut, Arizona State, Colorado, USC, North Carolina State, San Diego State and UNLV.
