USC 2024 commit Trent Perry named California Player of The Year

An incoming USC prospect is the best of the best in California.

USC commit and Harvard-Westlake point guard Trent Perry led his school to back-to-back state titles. The senior was recently named California Max Preps Player of The Year in men’s basketball.

The Studio City (California) native averaged 18.6 points, 6.1 rebounds and 5.9 assists per contest while shooting 55 percent from the field, 47.2 percent from 3-point range, and 86 percent from the free throw line. He led his team to a 33-3 record and a state title.

The 6-foot-3 combo guard is the No. 51 overall prospect in the Class of 2024 according to 247Sports, Perry signed with USC in November over Colorado, Gonzaga, Illinois, Oklahoma, Oregon, Saint Mary’s, Stanford, TCU and Virginia among others.

The McDonald’s All-American will likely start as a true freshman at point guard next season with the likely departures of fifth-year senior Boogie Ellis and projected lottery pick Isaiah Collier. Andy Enfield will need to find a way to maximize the resources on his roster, something he wasn’t able to do this past season at USC.
