Is this the reason Trey Burke was out of the league? Because all he wants to do is spam midrange jumpers out of pick-and-roll situations? Midrange jumpers are cool and all, but there’s a reason that there was a huge backlash against them starting around six or seven years ago: there’s usually a better shot…

Trey Burke 18 Points Full Highlights (1/26/2018)
Trey “Prime A.I.” Burke did the majority of his damage tonight, 16 points worth, in a span of 6 minutes in the fourth quarter before getting subbed out for Frank Ntilikina (who is officially obsolete now just thought I’d mention that). The Suns are bad, but they’re still an NBA team who doesn’t especially want…

I kept doing double-takes while assembling this video. First, because my eyes kept telling me I was looking at prime Allen Iverson wearing a Knicks jersey, and second, because once I finally internalized that I was watching Trey Burke, I couldn’t believe that he kept scoring the rock and getting assists. For real though, this…
Read MoreTrey Burke 27 Points Full Highlights (4/12/2017)
Trey “Treyburkulosis” Burke has been one of the most bench-buried players in the league this season. He was, at the beginning of the season, getting some amount of backup PG minutes, maybe not as many as a player of his caliber (or at least draft pedigree) should have been getting, but some. Then the Wizards…

No lie, I legit thought that Trey Burke was dead. Not just buried on the Wizards bench, which would be the kind of “dead” that Marcus Thornton is, but actually clinically dead. For real. I kind of thought it was sorta weird how no one was caring about a former top-10 pick who died while…
Read MoreTrey Burke 25 Points Full Highlights (1/18/2016)
There’s something special about 25 points. Maybe because it’s one-fourth of the way to Wilt’s 100, or maybe it’s because quarters are objectively the best type of coin. Whatever the reason, you should be glad that Trey Burke got that last free throw to go in, because there was no way I was doing highlights…

I was perhaps a little too quick to dismiss Trey Burke after his dismal sophomore season in the league, where he shot 37% from the field (shades of Brandon Jennings) and dimed the ball four times a game in thirty minutes per contest. In fairness, though, those numbers suck. Bad. Combine that with my tendency…
Read MoreTrey Burke 24 Points/6 Threes Full Highlights (11/7/2015)
Trey Burke was such absolute garbage last year that it actually physically hurts me that he’s playing well this year. It’s like there’s a little part of me that exists only to throw shade on Burke, and now that the shade is being withheld, it’s letting me know by introducing stabbing pains in my chest…
Read MoreTrey Burke 23 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (2/28/2015)
You probably knew this already, but Trey “Treyburkulosis” Burke is a chucker of the highest order. It didn’t even hit me until just now. Despite being a very poor shooter, he is second on the Jazz in shot attempts. Now I understand why Jazz fans think he’s the worst player in the league. He is…

“Congratulations, it’s a healthy baby boy!” exclaimed the nurse, holding a wet, shriveled, and screaming Trey Burke in her arms. “Have you come up with a name for him?” she asked, handing the baby back to his exhausted, sweaty mother. Trey’s mom exchanged a look with her husband, who was standing beside the bed. “Well…”…
