Trey Alexander - Creighton (PG/SG - HT: 6’3” - WING: 6’10” - WT: 190 - A: 21y)

- A high floor versatile guard who can make an immediate impact for a good team
- Solid combo guard with decent size. not tall but really long
- Great shooter with an awesome middy and 3pt shot, though his percentage is down this year.
- Good screen navigator and very patient with the ball. Takes his time and finds his spots 
- Worried about his space creation in isolation. He doesn’t play with a lot of shake
- Not a pass first guy, but can definitely make the right reads, especially in P&R, and get off some tough passes
- Really active on the boards, crashes after almost every shot. Has some huge rebounding games in the teens
- Solid defender with upside due to his length, activity, and hustle
- Has some very translatable skills and metrics. Long on- or off-ball guard who can shoot and rebound at elite positional levels, and defend and playmake at passable levels. A guy who should stick in a rotation
- Shades of bigger Gary Harris, Marcus Sasser, Donte DiVincenzo
- Best fit: ORL, MIA, ATL, TOR, CHA

En NCAA depuis 3 ans, Alexander a progressé chaque saison même s'il reste trop irrégulier longue distance. Physique NBA-ready pour malgré tout peupler un banc NBA dès demain, il devrait pouvoir apporter sur de courtes séquences grâce à son excellent jeu mid-range. Peut-être plus, donc, si un staff parvient à redresser son tir à 3pts.

Trey Alexander has done a little bit of everything for Creighton this year. He is putting up good numbers offensively and is a very good defender for his position. I want to see his 3pt shot get better overtime, but nonetheless is a pretty complete offensive player. He is a great playmaker and I think will remain a point guard in the NBA. He is also an underrated rebounding guard which a lot of teams should be looking at more. He has a great motor and will be a good guard off the bench.

Comparison/Ceiling: I see shades of Gary Harris if he's able to up his 3pt shot, but Alexander has the playmaking upside that Harris doesn't really possess.

Guard | Creighton

Height: 6'4" | Weight: 190 lbs | Age: 20

• Alexander is a solid and fundamentally sound lead guard with a good frame and an efficient game. He’s an excellent shooter when given space and hits a very high percentage from the line.

• At 6-4 he’s got the size you look for in a lead guard. He’s a very stout defender and can hold his own against 1’s and 2’s.

• Alexander plays more of a slow-paced game, making good decisions.

• He lacks blow-by speed and will likely struggle getting by NBA defenders.

Pros: -ridiculous length for a guard -could potentially play 1-3 -great shot creator -good playmaker

Cons: -meh shooter -older

Player Comp: Deanthony Melton

Notes: Trey Alexander has the build of a guard who can guard 1-3 and score 15 a night. Id love to see him alongside a ball dominant, all star level point guard.

I dont see why hes generally ranked so low, hes a combo guard with long arms who can defend, shoot ( although shaky at times) and has been a shot creator when called upon, especially last year. He should be getting a similar amount of hype to Devin Carter.
