I remember all the comments on his 9th grade mixtape would all say he'd never even make it in d1 and that he wouldn't thrive against real defense or bigger defenders lmaooo
Everyone knew Trae was heading towards being a star except for those people calling the kid a bust smh because those so called expert thought his game wouldn't translate to today's NBA
Nick Valentin If he can make his defense stats a positive in the many years he has left to play or even a neutral he’ll probably be one of if not the best of his time.
From past to present, you can definitely see the improvement in his pro game. His decision making is better, he’s more athletic, his overall game is more refined and direct and his range has improved.
One of the biggest inspirations to see bro proves that if u outwork the competition you don’t need any crazy athleticism or born skill to be great. My boy developed all his skills to a point he started for the ASG at 21 smfh that’s remarkable man.. 🤦🏽♂️🐐💯
Trae Young reminds me a lot like well ... Me the shooting the footwork , the hesi , the finishing just better passing see but if only the cameras were on I'd be 2 years deep in the league
Imagine the shame that will inevitably happen to someone someday. Trae Young a genius, a great, mid game he’s in the ZONE. He is showing no mercy and has dropped many points. In the middle of the match out of no where he crosses over one defender and as another approaches: he makes one of the SMOOTHEST, cleanest, SAUCIEST, passes in all of Basketball history. Now you’ve caught it and all you’ve gotta do now is score. **AIRRRRRRRRBALLLLLLLLLLLLLL**
The funny thing is everybody wants to talk about how small he is but in terms of play and superiority he's the only GIANT on the floor, his game hasn't changed on either level, he brought the same game to the NBA he's a LEGEND.
From now on.. when people talk about "who has the best handles of all time" Trae Young name needs to at least be in the conversation. As you can see... he's had the ball on a string his whole damn life lol
This is a real question fr fr but is trae the first to start out wit BIL and go pro ? Idk I been watching ball is life long enough to know tbh did they follow him through his whole career is what I mean ?
trae's shooting and passing are amazing, but his finishing and footwork is underrated
Shooting percentage is overated... 36% this year... 🤔
@@terence79ulrikson yeah because percentage is everything lmao, that's above average
@@terence79ulrikson and he's shooting far out from 3, if he shot closer he'd easily crack 40-45%, don't hate
I'd say his footwork is NBA average. It's his pace and pro crossovers and palm dribbling that makes him move around the court well.
raredreamfootage and footwork dawg he gets insane separation of some of his moves by selling them with his feet
I remember all the comments on his 9th grade mixtape would all say he'd never even make it in d1 and that he wouldn't thrive against real defense or bigger defenders lmaooo
Sounds like what people said about curry
Nick Valentin they say that abt every small guard
LMAO. He makes it look so easy- thee red greatest compliment one can give.
fax
Always a pleasure watching him play. He’s a hard worker, entertaining and fun, level headed. I hope his team find some more pieces to put around him.
You sound like kyrie
Look at Trae man so Inspirational🔥
Never gets old 🤣
Thats how you know your tall as hell when a guy 6'1 is considered short lol
Trae's game is so smooth. He can score 30 plus on any given night and dime out 10 plus assists.
Greatest pg of all time in the making
Fax 🔥🔥
Yessir
ehhh top 10 at best i dont think he's topping pgs like nash , curry , or magic
this comment aged like some fine wine!
@@throwbackgrandpa9251 Agree but when it's all set in done he'll prolly be 10-11 all time pg
Bruh, this guy’s barely changed in 6 years. Still has the same baby face
Still an all star in the NBA tho..
Tsunami Gaming And Vlogz we know, that’s not what they’re talking about they’re just talking about his facial appearance not changing
ikr that’s the crazy part. his game just got faster and stronger. was always a killer on the court
That’s why his name is young.
Everyone knew Trae was heading towards being a star except for those people calling the kid a bust smh because those so called expert thought his game wouldn't translate to today's NBA
Right? Like how could those idiots not see the obvious ass STEPHEN CURRY comparison in their game he literally plays exactly like him.
Worst defender in the league according to the stats
Nick Valentin Steve Nash was too but he’s a hall of famer give him some rim protectors and he’s good
Nick Valentin If he can make his defense stats a positive in the many years he has left to play or even a neutral he’ll probably be one of if not the best of his time.
Trae young is what people wanted julian newman to be💀
oof
Hard work pays off💯

Watching this after he cheffed up my Knicks 🥲
he learnt how to use his body to absorb contact and finishing through traffic. he also got super crafty...
amazing player
Trae has the perfect combination of skills, confidence and IQ
His cadence is the best I've ever seen, in the 9th grade! Hes a living legend.
Look at Trae Young man, so inspirational!
Trae Young's incredible Evolution through the years! From tiny guard to tiny guard in 6 years!
Mans was and still is a pure stud. One of my favorites in the league rn.
Trae at 9th grade: a true talent
Me at 9th grade: mid range airball
Dats said
rofl
1:53 it's that dude from Mater Dei that battled against the Ball brothers in HS
Just imagine being as good as lil kid Trae young. A man can only dream 😞
Trae Young reminds me a lot like well ... Me the shooting the footwork , the hesi , the finishing just better passing see but if only the cameras were on I'd be 2 years deep in the league
That's my favorite player man
Your icon Steph curry better
ICE TRAE. One person that’s staying true to himself❤️
Dude, you are spot on. Ice.
My Dawg came a Long way remember this in 2015 years later he still on his grind Def Hall of Fame one day Sir
If you showed the the 9th grade clips and said it was from last week, I'd believe you
Thats how you kno he goated , man making the nba look like ppl he played in 9th grade
Imagine the shame that will inevitably happen to someone someday.

**AIRRRRRRRRBALLLLLLLLLLLLLL**
Every highlight looks so easy. Of course, he makes everything look so easy. Butter.
Trae look white, black and Latino at the same time🤣🤣
Y is this soo true💀😭😭
9:06 top 5 coldest hs plays I’ve seen
Love the videos! 🔥💪🔥
if i know one thing, its that brad edited the senior szn
The funny thing is everybody wants to talk about how small he is but in terms of play and superiority he's the only GIANT on the floor, his game hasn't changed on either level, he brought the same game to the NBA he's a LEGEND.
Future MVP
From now on.. when people talk about "who has the best handles of all time" Trae Young name needs to at least be in the conversation. As you can see... he's had the ball on a string his whole damn life lol
Wow this was an amazing video
Trae young is going to be on of the best shooters ever
Nawaf the beast he shoot like 34%
Joisbert Ramirez He still probably will
🗣️Trae Way!!!!
hes on track to be the greatest hawk of all time
Trae Young 💯 no joke 🏀💪
Hawks will win a championship in next 3-5 years if Trae sticks with the squad.
the sequences after 11:15 are just insane
Seems like he ain’t grow since 9th grade 😂
facts only thing that grew is his bank account
Crazy. To be the same height in 9th grade you'd think at that time he'd have potential to get to 6'4"
Truly Incredible!
0:06 2:27 3:13 4:27 4:38 5:49

Idola. Trae young 😍
I play a ton of Basketball. cool video.
He should be a champion in the future
was that Trae Young cooking team USA at the end?
Trae young like naruto he went from some believers to all believers
U know your early when not a single comment has hit 100 likes
Curry passed the torch to him
You act like Curry ain't good anymore lol
Donnie Darko how is he saying curry’s not good? He just said one great is passing on the torch to the next great
Nex amen
Canada Made Caleb I think he’s referring to the fact that when someone passes the torch it means they’re too old/retiring
now this is a video!
Young young
Nahhh that summer before his Junior year is when he got his swag you can see it he started doing whatever out there lol
If he gains more muscle in the arms he be shooting half court with ease more than we have ever seen
Its not in the arms its in the legs
That’s now how it works bro
He’s to good😂😂
Super polished even in High School.
Still tiny but 3pt game got WAAAY BIGGER
You the OG.. you got mad love on WS ..
Who here after 2021 hawks playoffs?
I don't ever remember dissing him, but i remember thinking he was brilliant but would peak at college, i might have been wrong
Whatchu think now?😂
You know inspiration what's a thousand " 2 years away and 10 miles"...
12th grade year he was just throwing the ball in the hoop 🤣😂😂
He is pretty undersized but his use of his off-arm to protect the ball and unbalance defenders is ELITE. It's always the small things.
Remember when he averaged damn near 30 and 10 as a freshman and some people actually thought he wouldn't dominate at the next level? 🤣🤣🤣
highflyer011 Crazy he averaged those same numbers his 2nd year in the league lol
Nobody:
Guy Recording: oOhHh GeEzuzzzz 😫
You can really start to see him get more comfortable over the years
It is a small thing, but the floaters from the angles are really impressive. That is a difficult shot.
Does anyone know if any of the other kids in that 10th grade gameplay made nba?
This is a real question fr fr but is trae the first to start out wit BIL and go pro ? Idk I been watching ball is life long enough to know tbh did they follow him through his whole career is what I mean ?
55 had no business coming out there lol. 10:48 Lucky he didn't shatter his knee.
Looks like trae young always had a mustache
He looks the exact same with facial hair lmao
Idiots , not physical appearance his game matured
