Have we seen the last of Trae Young’s college career? Oklahoma might have played itself right out of the NCAA tournament. Their loss to Oklahoma State last night makes it 11 losses in their last 15 games and 8 in their last 10. Oklahoma and Young once looked like a lock for a one seed but now they’ll need some help from other bubble teams to even have a chance of dancing this year. Oklahoma seemed to just run out of fire power. They just didn’t have enough offense past Trae Young to keep it going. Teams started to focus on the freshman phenom and his teammates couldn’t pick up the slack. This late season skid is really a bummer as I was looking forward to seeing Young play in the tournament. There hasn’t been an announcement yet but all signs point to Trae entering the draft this year. What else do he have to prove? He led the nation in both points and assists per game. If anything, returning to Oklahoma and continuing to be an great player on an average team could hurt his draft stock. Young should cash in on the hype surrounding his game and head to the league. There is still an outside chance Oklahoma makes it into the tournament but more than likely their season is done. What becomes of Trae Young is yet to be seen.
