Trier plays with great confidence and mixes a silky-smooth shot with a relentless attacking style to the hoop.
When I watched Allonzo Trier play for first time this season I immediately thought he could benefit UA right then. That rarely happens w/me.

Clippers guard Jamal Crawford is a Trier fan.
Congrats @isozo_loe!!

Sean Miller will look for Trier to be a bucket stopper on the other end too. He certainly has the athleticism to fill that role.
The scoring machine that is Allonzo Trier is starting to come to life. 17 points just a few minutes into 2nd half. Bucket Getter.

Some truth to this for Trier (who finished with 28 points): Other than Derrick Williams’ 32 points against Duke in the 2011 Sweet 16 game, no player under Sean Miller has scored an extraordinary amount in a game. Six different players led Arizona in scoring in games this season. Only nine times did a player score at least 20 points with T.J McConnell, of all players as the point guard, with a season-high of 25 points at ASU.
When next we see Allonzo Trier, in a UA uni, after scoring 30 on ESPN tonight, one thing will be missing. The green light. #sharetheball

This is not an easy thing to do.
Allonzo Trier makes scoring look real easy

Reminiscent of the quick first step Sean Elliott displayed at the same age.
Allonzo Trier has been highly effective getting a step in the open floor and then lowering his shoulder. No one is more confident.

The hard-to-defend variance of Stanley Johnson and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, but Johnson still More likely to leave than stay as a potential lottery pick. He has eight days to decide.
What a one two punch Stanley Johnson and Allonzo Trier could be
