AAU Recap by Darrian Traylor

6’2 Guard from Class of 2015 Darrian Traylor played with the 16U Las Vegas Knicks AAU Basketball Team ran by Lamar Bigby.  I had a chance to sit down and talk to him about his breakout campaign.  Here is what he thought about his 2013 AAU Basketball experience.

I played a lot of great games this year but a game that stood out was a weekend when I had 33 our first game, and scored 21 the next game against the Iowa Blackhawks. I got the chance to play in a 17u tournament and scored 30 in a game as well. I would have to say the Arizona Power 17’s with Casey was the best team that the Las Vegas Knicks played this year. They really knew how to play the game and share the ball.

Recruiting picked up for me real well late in the season.  We started to get more and more coaches at each game. The more the season went on, the bigger programs coaches started to show up.  I Started to get interest from like USC, Iowa, and SDSU.

I’m really liking Weber State and Santa Clara the most because they take care of there kids and want the best for them. The experience was great getting to play and become a duo with Nate Grimes and getting coached by a great coach. There really is nothing better you can ask for. Not only has Coach Bigby helped me in basketball, but he is helping me in life and becoming a man. He is doing something special with us and changing all our lives.

Thank you Indivisible Hoops for keeping track of my season!
