Summary:
Trevelin Queen is an athletic, skilled wing player that was a stat stuffer in college basketball, and he is a versatile player that can contribute in a number of ways.
Queen is a swingman that rates well in most statistical categories, and in a recent article, he was the sleeper pick of ESPN’s Kevin Pelton. While he may need to show that he can consistently fare well against top-notch competition, Queen is an intriguing prospect as he can finish plays above the rim to garner scores, has a very good pump fake move to get defenders in the air, and also is a fairly solid facilitator on the floor.
Right now, Queen may project into a 3 and D type of role in the NBA, as he looks to be a second round prospect for the 2020 draft.
