Write Up
Melo Trimble decided to return to Maryland after a solid sophomore season and failed to show much improvement, he also failed to impress at both NBA combines he attended. With that said, Trimble is a good prospect and has the ability to score the ball. He is a good shooter and has NBA range. He also shoots well off pull ups, curls, spots ups, etc. He has good size and strength for the PG position and has the ability to play some SG in the NBA in small ball lineups. He is a very good passer and can thread the needle in pick and roll situations or lob it perfectly over defenders in the post. Sometimes he fails to make the simple pass which leads to bad turnovers. He is mentally tough, and took and made many big shots at Maryland. He also has a high basketball IQ and plays hard on defense. Trimble is limited by his lack of length and vertical leap. He has improved his floater and finishing ability, but still struggles to finish over taller defenders. Lastly if Trimble is going to play PG in the NBA he needs to improve his assist to turnover ratio. He looks to score first and then fails to make easy passes or misses open players all together. Overall Trimble is a solid prospect who may make an NBA roster if he performs well in workouts or Summer League.
