Despite being one of the top scorers in college basketball, Allonzo Trier was not selected in the 2018 NBA Draft. It’s an unsurprising fate, as he was not listed in any major mock draft. Trier’s NBA dream is far from over, though, as he has already agreed to a two-way deal with the New York Knicks.
Essentially, it means Trier will spend the 2018-19 season in the G League, with a chance to earn a call up if he performs well enough. The caveat is he will not be able to be on the NBA roster for more than 45 days.
Trier’s scoring ability is enticing. He averaged 18.1 points per game as a junior at Arizona, shooting a hyper-efficient .500/.380/.865 from the field. Those numbers got him a spot on the All-Pac-12 second team.
