I've had a number of kids in the NBA that I've coached and a number of other great players that I've coached.
During my senior year, there were NBA scouts at my games. At some point, I guess, I started hoping I'd get drafted by a team where there would be a great situation for me. As it turned out, Portland was the best situation for me.
I think we can benefit from being in the ACC. It's a great basketball league. If anything, it helps our recruiting.
I actually got an invite from the 87ers, the D-League affiliate for the 76ers.
Alabama's a football state and you really don't get too many basketball players out there.
I was invited to play with the New York Knicks. I was never drafted, but I was invited to the rookie camp.
More than half the G League is going to be high school kids that are trying to make it. I hope I'm wrong. I absolutely hope I'm wrong.
Strong college basketball is great for the NBA.
You have to show high school players that fans care about your program, that they're gonna be at the games. I think that's a huge key to success in college basketball.
In high school, my dream was to go to the NBA. But when recruiting came around, the letters for football compared to basketball were like 25 to one, and my one wasn't from Duke.
I don't come from any type of entertainment. I come from a basketball family. My dad still says, 'Trevor, are you sure don't want to play basketball? You can play in college and go to the NBA!' But I did play.
When I started out, I was a basketball player at Texas Wesleyan University.
Getting a star player in the NBA is not impossibly hard, but close. It requires either an incredible amount of luck, or an amazing amount of time, or some other way to try and get at it.
