Trae Young, Michael Porter planning package deal for college hoops
Posted Jun 2, 2015
Which pair of basketball recruits plans to join forces in college from the 2017 class? Meet Mokan Elite (Kan.) duo Michael Porter Jr. and Trae Young. “Yep we’re gonna do it,” Young said. “We’re putting it out there that we’re gonna play together.” They’ve certainly got the talent. Young is on everyone’s short list for top point guard in the class and Porter, who is ranked No. 2 overall in the ESPN 25, is quickly gaining the “next big thing” buzz. Young and Porter said they plan to setup their lists based on schools who want them both.
