Trevion U19 Tryouts

That up and under move was nasty! If he can show a strong post game teams will be forced to double him on the block and with his passing ability Purdue should get a lot of open threes.
Also, does anyone know his measurements (wingspan and hand size more specifically). In the Purdue video from summer practice there is a clip of him grabbing a rebound way out of his bubble and ripping it in with one hand. In this clips he extends that arm way out to create space. Just curious.
I feel like he shuffles his feet a lot still being a target for a travel call?
Anyone else see this in the video?

I bet that's 50-50 in a real game. Didn't look egregious as he looked to stop his hand before he tugged the jersey almost like a check swing in baseball. Happ got away with that for four years because he was really good about not grabbing the opponents jersey.
Not sure but Painter said he would not make the team if he did not get down to 260 lbs. Considering MP is on the board of directors for USA basketball I am sure there was meaning behind his comments.
I thought I read that by the end of the season he was about 265.
A couple of thoughts on the video:
-Nice job by Tre to feel the defender leaning his body weight into Tre’s back on the high side.
-Poor job by the defender doing the above. He needs to push with the forearm without leaning his body weight against him so he’s not off balance when Tre drop steps or spins baseline. Bend the knees and remain balanced.
-I bet Tre has backed that kid down a few times which is why he is leaning. That power, quickness, long arms and fantastic hands combo is hard to handle.
-If Tre keeps that elbow bent and uses the elbow to nail the defender in or below the ribs instead of extending the arm and hand behind him the chicken wing is converted to pain. More effective and less likely to get a whistle.
And I hope that teams learn they can't stop him by fouling.A couple of thoughts on the video:

He will get ample opportunities at the old charity stripe. That could be huge for him if he capitalizes on it.
Chicken wing,??? Did somebody say Cassius Winston???
Yep. I'm going to be an optimist and believe he will welcome the fouls for some freebies.
That was Painter’s comment, something along the lines of he makes the team at 260, doesn’t at 280. Will be interesting to see how it shakes out as he looks a lot closer to 280 to me in that video.
Yeah, that was a hook. Needs a bit less extension to the hook...nothing past elbow and can probably not get called
I see there was no need for me to type as you addressed his arm extensionA couple of thoughts on the video:

In the perfect attendance gathering Matt stated that the air would be thin for the try outs relative to tre I never heard Matt specify a weight number only that losing weight would be beneficial
Per this article, Painter said TW does not make the team at 275-280 but gives himself a chance at around 250.

...and my preference for firm elbow to the ribs
One good way to avoid the hook is to make the move with two hands on the ball.
Should clarify that this is the first cut. They will make additional cuts to a 12 man roster before June 24th.
2 workouts a day at altitude should be beneficial for Trevion regardless if he makes the final roster.

I never really thought about Purdue's dunking rate next season, but it might be quite spectacular. With increased usage of players like Wheeler, Williams, Eastern, and Haarms, we may be treated to quite a few dunkfests and nasty slams.
Phi Slamma Jamma - Purdue Chapter.
Don’t forget Dowuona, assuming he gets playing time. I saw him do a reverse two handed dunk during warmups prior to a game in Mackey before his injury.
Not sure why I can embed an Instagram link but here is the guy with the video of Tre.

Watching these videos and seeing reports about the other player's development, how can we not believe that this team could make another big run in March.
Trevion and Haarms will both be a load down low. If we get any positive minutes for ED then that’s just a bonus. This team might not have an all American but they’ll have multiple shooters-down low presence, and several players that cause matchup issues. I don’t think it’s out of the realm to see this team compete again for a conference championship. Can’t wait-
This team should also be top of the league on defense. I am also quite anxious to see what they can do.
If Trevion can hit 3's like that, look out.....
Also, he was taking Villanova 5 star Forward Jeremiah Robinson Earl off the dribble in one clip.
IF the defensive matchups work out, and that is a big if, we could see a lot more of Tre and Haarms together than many of us are expecting.
Gotta watch that shoulder. During the season, especially when kids try getting calls by flopping, that easily could have been a foul.
USA Basketball has updated measurements of 6’9 and 280 from this tryout. Looking for other measurements but coming up emput.
