Trae Young awaiting NBA draft Thursday night

Trae Young

Trae Young went into college basketball feeling like he had something to prove to his doubters.

A year later, here he goes again. Young was the most electrifying player in the college game this past season, his stellar numbers in his only season at Oklahoma more than silencing anyone who felt like he wasn’t elite.

And now he expects that he’ll need to prove himself once again, starting right when his name gets called in Thursday night’s NBA draft.
