NCAA Basketball: Quartet of SEC Schools make 2021 G Trey Alexander’s top 7

NCAA Basketball 4-star guard Trey Alexander updated his recruitment Tuesday evening inching closer to a final decision.

The Oklahoma City native is down to a final seven of NCAA Basketball teams including of HBCU Grambling State, in-state power Oklahoma, blue-blood Kansas, and SEC contenders Georgia, Auburn, Ole Miss, and Arkansas.

Trey Alexander has continued to make a name for himself this summer competing at a high level in tournaments for associated teams of Nike EYBL affiliate Team Griffin (OK) and Next Page Force (AR) at the grassroots level.

The 6’4 combo guard has a well-rounded skill set that easily explains the pursuit of power 5 programs for his services, but his potential and likelihood to immediately impact the team he steps on the court for.

The natural on-court fit for Alexander is to play off-ball, but he has plenty of ball-handling capabilities to step into that role if his team needs it. He has a long frame and is comfortable attacking the rim with either hand and splitting defenders on his way to the rim.

An underrated part of his repertoire is facilitating to his teammates once he penetrates the interior of the defense. Alexander exhibits strong court vision to make impact plays throughout games and seems to always have his fingerprints on the outcomes of contests.

His bread and butter lie with his danger as a consistent and reliable perimeter scoring threat. Alexander has deep range on his shot and is more than capable of putting the ball on the floor to create opportunities for himself. He has the ability to quickly set his feet to get shots off, but this same rapid deceleration allows him to put defenses on their heels in mid-range spots as well.

His overall versatility on the offensive end is going to make him an instant part of the rotation at his next stop, and potential starter, but his defensive impacts cannot be ignored either.

Alexander is a competitor at heart and takes it upon himself to guard the best perimeter player in nearly every game. He has good lateral quickness and hands to stifle many seasoned ball-handlers. His length helps production as a rebounder and shot disruptor, but coaches and fans can rely on his constant effort to known a strong defender is always on the court.

As Alexander continues to move through the recruiting process, where does he project to find early playing time and mesh with his final 7 schools?
