Information
Trae Young is 1.85 meters tall, with a wingspan of 1.91 meters, a standing height of 2.43 meters, and a weight of 82 kilograms. He serves as a point guard. Trae YoungThe Dallas Mavericks selected Trey Young as the No. 5 pick in 2018. Trey Young has a smart and energetic style of play. He is good at independent offense and connecting teams. He is a very good new-generation guard player.
Trae Young is extremely confident. The louder the audience's ridicule, the better his performance, and he will irony those audiences from time to time. Trae Young's small body contains huge energy and aura. Being an enemy of the whole world is the only thing that excites him. Trae Young's style of play is somewhat similar to Harden's in the Rockets era. He likes to step back, is good at breakthroughs, is good at throwing empty catches, and draws fouls. As a defender, he is very good at assists.
Physical talent is not outstanding, and he is also one of the few players who can still gain a foothold in the NBA despite his physical talent. Trae Young has excellent Shooting and organizational skills, but his defensive ability is poor. He has been criticized. The pick-and-roll with the ball is the main weapon. He can handle the ball and can also complete one-on-one dribbles. He is an extremely good shooter with the ball, but there are few opportunities to shoot around screens. He has a good performance in intercepting passing routes. But only sometimes very confrontational and aggressive, so he needs to improve himself on the defensive end.
Pros & Cons
Trae Young's advantages and disadvantages are obvious because his three-point ability allows him to adapt to the NBA.
Pros: Three-point shooting, passing vision, transition
He possesses ultra-long-range shooting ability, and like Curry, it is his shooting range when he comes to the half-court. Not only can he catch and shoot, but he also dribbles to create space to shoot. Shooting is precise yet quick and easy.
Solid dribbling skills and a small throw! He has great passing ability and excellent vision and is good at catching Offense and defense transitions. And because of his relatively small size, he is also good at using screens to score. Because his three-pointers are threatening, he, like Curry, can attract defenders to break through or pass assists.
Cons: Short stature, poor defense, lack of strength
Trae Young is only 1.87 meters tall. He is a small guard and does not have a strong body, so he suffers a lot on the defensive end. So in the NBA, he will become the team's defensive loophole. According to his college performance, his dynamic data should be manageable, lacking explosive power and speed, so he cannot limit the opponent's defender.
The disadvantage of the offensive end is that the shot selection is not very good, or he is too confident, taking a big step outside the three-point line and shooting directly when there is plenty of offensive time. Passing is sometimes too risky, and turnovers are high.
"Young is an electric playmaker with unstoppable scoring," and that he's "absolutely one of the best players in NBA 2K23," said one critic. Another review called him a "walking bucket" and a "high-level player who can take over games."
