Trier joins combo guard Justin Simon and swingman Ray Smith as part of Arizona’s next recruiting class. The Wildcats’ three top-30 ESPN commitments puts them well ahead of the curve -- only three other players in that range have even given their college pledges so far.
Arizona is expecting a top-five team this upcoming season but will have holes to fill the next year if there is an NBA exodus. Senior point guard T.J. McConnell will graduate after the 2014-15 season, and Stanley Johnson, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Brandon Ashley and Kaleb Tarczewski could be NBA early-entry candidates.
Trier impressed this summer by averaging 12.6 points per game and shooting 62 percent from the field for USA Basketball’s Under-18 squad that participated in the FIBA Americas tournament. He was a starting guard for a team that also featured Johnson, Arizona’s prized member of the 2014 recruiting class.
