Sounds like someone is real passionate about soccer... You also don't have to put A.D. after the year, since you can't really travel back in time unless your Doc Emmett Brown
27 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds in his college debut against #11 Louisville. All I will say is tune in to ESPNU on January 23 when he takes on fellow Milwaukie guard Darrell Riley for MVSU. I hope they put on a show
@Justin Canale He played at TSU for two years (led them to the NCAA touney in '18) before transferring out And we won the game against them (although he went for 30 I believe)
LaflareeMontana yea nigga u dumb gee. He caught a body in-game and he can windmill wtf is talkin bout. Cuhh aquille was 5’5 and caught a body. Think about dat. U not a real hooper gee
He seems like a team player too. I got guys in my high school who think they are good, and will absolutely never pass the ball. They try to take the other team by themselves, and we end up losing the game. I'd love to play with this kid.
I don't think the kid isn't humble, yeah sure he said 'he can't guard me" and other shit, but plenty of nba players trash talk and they're still humble AF off the court
+obey da greatness Except Kobe liked playing defense and he didn't try cherrypicking every chance he could. Still has talent though... I just wouldn't want a guy on my team like that.
The spin moves look pretty when the good ones are shown here, but they are the easiest way to turn it over.. and im willing to bet he does a lot with them.
Albert McFallin Either way its still a high turn over move. How many pros do you see doing this many spin moves? Not a lot. All im saying is it looks like its his go to move, but i dont see it working out long term as the competition gets better.
ChrisHarford A lot can not do it either. Every one has their arsenal of moves that others can not do. His happen to be that spin move. I'm only telling you that what yo thought was incorrect for i have witnessed with my own eyes his play.
Albert McFallin And im telling you its a move with a high turnover rate, most coaches teach players not to spin like that. I understand it works for him now at the highschool level, but it wont be as effective as guys get bigger and more athletic in advanced competition. Its not that pro players cant do it, its that its not a good "special" move to "have in your arsenal"
LilCAm3211 it's about much more than being tall, it's about core and lower body strength, athleticism, kinetic energy, weight, hand size, balance and coordination, body type, timing, it's a lot more involved than just jumping. It is literally scientific reasoning to jumping. 6'3 and I can get up, but I have a 5'8 cousin who can jump clean over my head.
Lol it's always funny when people see new talent and don't wish him the best dood. This cat has a lot of heart and even if he might not be consistent as we think. Bruh still doing his thing out there.
Trae Jefferson can hoop. FOR SURE. And he has a plethora of moves. But here's my thing. When you get to D1 and NBA level, you only have time for one move and to the basket, take a jumper, or move the rock. You can't have 7/8/9 dribbles to yourself in one position. That's not real offense. I just don't see him doing this to a Michigan State defense or last years Florida team.
I've seen a lot of basketball in my life and this kid definitely has the potential. The only thing between him and his dreams is himself. If he wants it, he can have whatever his heart desires.
l hope his grades high and his hood life is low.. l'm 5 10 and l had hops like that when l was in high school playing ball but l decided to serve my country instead.. good luck young fella #salute
Out of ALL of the pgs that I have watched... This guy and the professor is CLEARLY the best ball handlers out! Respect to all of the other pgs... But that is the truth!
Nigga was too hood for the industry lmfao. He would’ve fasho been ranked top 100 wit high majors if he would’ve played the “good kid” role. He was puttin up 50 balls like its nothing not getting back on defense talking madd shit in front of coaches😂
I don't even like basketball but Wowww , this kid should be in the league right now . His handle is crazy & he shares the ball & is a human highlight maker.
go on his ig he posted hes gettin ready for college ball this fall hes back home necause he graduated from elite prep now hes home waiting to go to college
jalen holmes he just named 2 of the top 5 point guards in their class (noah, blackwell & dennis smith) and the third is a legit point who's underrated. You obviously don't follow high school basketball.
Devan Eng your dumb fool. I don't mean to be rude but there's alto of flashiness these days in the NBA. They like kids who can slice through the defenders like cake. He does pass and is good at it.
marquane elakkaoui look up cj McCollum in high school. Skinny, and short but look where he is at now. Most people at his size during freshman would've quit ball
5 years later still one of the dopest mixtapes
John Doe Milwaukee boii is nasty

Captain Obvious. Haven't heard that one before... SMH
+Ballislife2 stfu
Jass Naj Or what?
5'7 and can slam? Oh my gyash
He also had a ridiculous wingspan for his height
+ImanDerZel acquire Carr never dunked in traffic and can't dunk like trae
Evil Soundcloud rapper But still, I know niggas that's 6'4 and can't even touch rim
LaflareeMontana haven’t you seen his poster on his mixtape?

If could pla with him. He got kicked out of school
I played with🖐🏾👊🏿 him and against him let's say yes Trae Jefferson is the truth hands down... Like AI MIXED WITH AKILI CARR!!!!
7 years later still cold af
7 years later and still one of the dopest mixtapes !
On god 😂🔥
Jesus those handles and that athleticism, no one can guard him!
But i think from his defensive highlights he also can't guard anyone
Top 5 mixtape of all time Trae was a dawg
Trae you are an inspiration to me.
At your height what you are doing is incredible. Like your body is air and water. Thanks for the show.
I don't think the kid isn't humble, yeah sure he said 'he can't guard me" and other shit, but plenty of nba players trash talk and they're still humble AF off the court
Who said he isn't humble
Ballislife calls every player the most exciting player in highschool
Right, though!
I have to agree
Lol or number 1 player in high school
lol ikr
So true 😂😂😂😂
Till this day these type of Ballislife mixtapes so raw 🔥
I hope the kid makes it to the NBA.
really tho
I hope he changes his attitude as well.
Griffin Wood
I hope so too.
he is confident. No need to change that. He has a similar mentality like kobe
+obey da greatness Except Kobe liked playing defense and he didn't try cherrypicking every chance he could. Still has talent though... I just wouldn't want a guy on my team like that.
One of the craftiest high schoolers ive ever seen. I guess he has to be extra crafty at 5'7
A beat can really put a mixtape from decent to goat status 🐐
2019 and still the best ballislife mixtape 🔥🔥
"This is what I do! Ball is life baby!"
This mixtape forever iconic.
LMAO this kid looks like hes having a seizure when he dribbles
All that extra shit for the camera.
Right?! Im not hating just stating what i see
AJ Bats great moves... Great ball handler but too bad he doesn't make them look good :/
Honestly. He looks to crazy when plays or goes for lay ups, looks like he just chucks lay ups and they just go in
Sport_Sharp it's not about what looks good. Its about what works
Greatest intro to a basketball mixtape of all time
This is one of the most exciting mixes ever. It’ll cool to see him vs Aquille Carr that’ll be dope because they play similar
I still watch this every now and then.
Who’s here before Jeff Teague mentioned him ?
Was here when this mfer came out
the “this is what i do” beginning is so iconic
Seeing someone at my height play like this motivates me
This guy is gonna make it. Sick handles, passing, scoring and he can dunk at 5'7? That's insane.
That beginning play though
Man, I miss these highlights days!!!
He was one of the most shiftiness guards I’ve ever seen in high school 💯💯
This man was punching at 5’6 in high school. That’s crazy fr
The opening part was COMEDY
Probably still my fav mixtape to this day!!! Geesh!!!
His game is wild as shit, I bet he averages a lot of turnovers lol
The spin moves look pretty when the good ones are shown here, but they are the easiest way to turn it over.. and im willing to bet he does a lot with them.
ChrisHarford he doesn't. Hometown representer and I watch his games. He has good control with the ball.
Albert McFallin Either way its still a high turn over move. How many pros do you see doing this many spin moves? Not a lot. All im saying is it looks like its his go to move, but i dont see it working out long term as the competition gets better.

Best mixtape ever
Easily a top 5 mixtape all time STAMPED!
This was the mixtape that brought me to ballislife
@@fromtheheartfortheheart1598 and i don’t even blame you it was just that good
Iv never seen someone break the press so smooth like trea single handedly
Just wondering, if anyone watches most of his games, how often does he get blocked average per game? :)
he doesnt get blocked
BALLAsTvDotCom When are you dropping your new Trae Jefferson Mix? I know you have some dope for the internet.
Ive probably watched Trae play 100 times over the past 3 years...and Ive seen his shot get blocked maybe 5 times...TOTAL!
Thon maker will toss his stuff
No he wont
Damn lil mane handling his bizness out there!!! Salute!!!! Young Brotha!!!
There's no excuse for people taller than him not to be able to dunk besides health issues.
That's what I'm saying but can you dunk?
RJ Jones No cause I don't go that hard and I'm 5'11". It's really sad, I just see these guys and I'm here like what have I been doing.
Ya I'm 5'9 and I'm seeing all these short dudes dunk and I'm like I suck huh
***** How are you 6'4 and can't dunk?
LilCAm3211 it's about much more than being tall, it's about core and lower body strength, athleticism, kinetic energy, weight, hand size, balance and coordination, body type, timing, it's a lot more involved than just jumping.

I wish and hope a lot of these prospects get good grades as well
That's exactly what this nigga doesn't get
watch yo mouth bitch
he's going to college so it doesn't matter
that around the back jumpstop with lefthanded finish is impressive
Damn My Guy This And Marcus Lovett Jr My Fav Tapes Of All Type Also Aquille Carr
HE KILLING THEM WHERE THE HATERS AT? EXCELLENT COURT VISION, GREAT PASSES, GREAT SHOT GOOD JOB KID PLAY
Aquille Carr will still be the ignition to the growth of HS mixtapes
Still my favorite player watching growing up. Nasty asf
Who else think he shoulda went to a different school
y? what hapened to him?
Redshirt for TSU right now
GREATEST MIX YALL EVER MADE 💯💯💯💯

reminds me of aquil
Classic still watching in 2021
l hope his grades high and his hood life is low.. l'm 5 10 and l had hops like that when l was in high school playing ball but l decided to serve my country instead.. good luck young fella #salute
So many carry's!! He's super short and quick. He's got handles. Good court vision. So many carry's and unorthodox footwork.
My man gotta 98 rated Hesi
Out of ALL of the pgs that I have watched... This guy and the professor is CLEARLY the best ball handlers out! Respect to all of the other pgs... But that is the truth!

“Ball is life babyyy”
Waste of talent smh! Kid had great potential and now he's not even in school! Sad to see
Is be fr not in school
+Jeffrey Henry he*
He's playing next year at texas southern he was ineligible his first year
+H Price892 why tf did he go to the swac
tjiles20 he's 5'7 probably didn't get to many other offers
Iconic intro
I can see he has some Kyrie in him
It’s 2020 and this still the hardest mixtape ballislife ever made.
can't wait to play as him on 2k lol
He gotta make it to the league first sir
+Mark Curry that comment is 4 months old sir
+MajorUpHold he's not going to the NBA , therefore he will not be on 2k ever sir
Mark Curry how do u know?
+Mark Curry true point sir but my original point still stands that the comment was 4 months old sir
5 years later, and i still remember exactly what i was doing first time i saw this. One of the illest mixtapes out there
he aint got nothing on aquille carr
Its funny cause Devin said himself last week that trae is better than aquille. Check @10000hours twitter if you dont believe me.
Idk they both be fire🔥🔥🔥
you're an idiot
He's better o boy
Aquillie car didn't get draft this kid is going draft and go to collage !!!👍👍👍
I don't even like basketball but Wowww , this kid should be in the league right now . His handle is crazy & he shares the ball & is a human highlight maker.
This guy works at Mc donalds now
Well he's not exactly going to be working on wall street is he smh
How u know ugly ?
He is trying to be funny
dylan c he's serious
Nykeis Greene how u know ? On instagram he shows off a lot of money I doubt mc Donalds minimum wage is supplying that
You dudes are trip'n! I seen him play in person. He short but he quick as hell and his IQ is off the charts. You should watch him.
He's so damn reckless and in college they'll call travels and carries all the time!
12/17/24 I still come back and watch this mixtapes trea was different
Read his Twitter. He's got "fuck up" written all over him.
It's just how he is ,where he from how he talk he curses just like any other person he just doesn't try to hide it like your favorite player
Where's he playing ball this year? He had offers from a lot of teams and he fucked it up because he's a fuck up.
go on his ig he posted hes gettin ready for college ball this fall hes back home necause he graduated from elite prep now hes home waiting to go to college
Smh he's going to Texas Southern University
Need these mixtapes back😭‼️
Lol!!! This shit doesn't work in the ncaa cause you not playing bums
Lol i dont see no Noah Blackwell
True
jalen holmes he just named 2 of the top 5 point guards in their class (noah, blackwell & dennis smith) and the third is a legit point who's underrated. You obviously don't follow high school basketball.
sk8terboijb Noah Blackwell is not a top 5 PG
sk8terboijb yea I don't because they all like men playing among boys that shit not exciting it's saddening see them do them bums like that
This a boy that loves to play some basketball but look at high this dude gets in the air thumbs up for the hard work 2:43
Alot of hate out here.(typical) This kid is nice though!!
Keep up the good work yung tre.I want to see you have success in the next level, practice hard all the way to draft day... the goal is one and done!!
Would be a better player if he was more humble
im hip
I think you have to have that attitude if your so small. otherwise he'd get pushed around even if he was Ballin
how does being humble make you better? Your personality had nothing to do with your playing ability. This was a very dumb comment
+Rylan Adams
You don't think this clown can't beat on defense glory-hounding after a basket? Your attitude can easily effect your play.
+Pat Draper (Pat Whosoever) Personality has nothing to do with your skill so No, he'd be the same.
Dennis was like "man that's some bullshit"😂😂😂
only if he was a bit more humble
Let him live
Your right.. He's crossing the shit out of them fools. Hope he makes it to the nba
j rod he's got the talent for sure. Hometown representer, Milwaukee up!
Brad Evand y.
Brad Evand man, get out of here.
Mixtape of the year.
The next micheal jordan?
naw the next Trae Jefferson
shut yo dumb a$$ up
While u watching anime don't forget to hold on to your L tight
He's a straight ☝ "G" with that 🏀!!!!!
Lil boosie was tough in high school
what makes him so real and above average is that he can use both hands equally. He finishes with his left and right.
Better than Julian Newman
Just goes to show you, doesn't matter how small you are, you can still hoop with the best of them... Props dude has skills
This guy is good but they went over board and overrated him. I could probably beat him 1v1 idk probably
no
totally
I actually Play for my high school team so I think i can
Get a mixtape
i play for a state championship team contender in Ca. im on the bench though haha! can i beat him too?
OMG! This kid is incredible. He's definitely gonna be a top player at the college level & definitely has NBA potential, if he keeps working as hard.
Easy NBA.
-Basketball- Hearts too flashy. If anything he won't get in. NBA scouts don't give af about flashiness. He's gotta work on the fundamentals.
Devan Eng your dumb fool. I don't mean to be rude but there's alto of flashiness these days in the NBA. They like kids who can slice through the defenders like cake. He does pass and is good at it.
hes undersized that why he wont be in the nba its the same reason bigger schools hesitated to recruit him.
marquane elakkaoui look up cj McCollum in high school. Skinny, and short but look where he is at now. Most people at his size during freshman would've quit ball
Devan Eng ya but trae never had a remarkable growth spurt like Cj McCollum he grew to be 6 feet 4 inches by the time is his senior year
Hopefully he will play in the NBA this is insane
he aint really that good..i would give him that business 1 on 1 tho
You wouldn't give him anything
Doubt it
Yeah, you would give him your ankles
DMVBaller362 Lmao
Yo hairline would.
Really inspiring! I'm 5'6 and really tempted to pick up basketball, this gave me hope that I can be an OK player even with my length.
