As a one-and-done diaper dandy at the University of Oklahoma, Trae
Young personified the new wave of offensive-minded point guards inspired
by Steph Curry that shoot with no-conscience and are always looking to
push the pace. As a freshman the Sooners' 6’ 2” floor general became the
first player in NCAA history to lead the nation in both points and
assists (total and per game). Now the Atlanta Hawks rookie
extraordinaire has his sights set on NBA’s Rookie of the Year and he’s
off to a torrid start, averaging almost 17 points and 8.3 assists per
game in his 2018-19 debut season. With unlimited range and a fitting first name, the sky's the limit for this young cat.
Presented here is a Trae’s game worn Norman North High School uniform from his 2016-17 senior season. Unlike most prep stars of this money and exposure driven era, Young stayed local his whole high school career. He averaged an insane 42.6 points as a senior before heading cross-town to the OU campus for his lone season of college ball. The white Nike mesh jersey has "NORTH" and his No. "11" screen-printed on the front in dark green outlined in gray. His number and team's "NN" logo appear on the reverse in similar format. The shirt looks to be properly tagged on the left front tail in size M. The matching Nike size M white shorts have the high school's Timberwolves mascot logo on each side. The uniform shows light but appropriate wear overall. This is Young's first and only known game worn high school uni to be offered publicly, and it comes directly from Trae himself. The kid could very well turn out to be an NBA superstar.
LOA from Young's father on behalf of Trae.
