Young is now as high as No. 3 on at least one mock draft from Sporting News — behind only Luka Doncic and Duke’s Marvin Bagley III. Young went for 27 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds in No. 7 Oklahoma’s 109-89 win over Oklahoma State Wednesday night. He now has seven games of 25 points and 10 rebounds in just 13 games, the most of any major conference player in the last 20 seasons.Steph Curry asked about Trae Young from OU, who some have compared to him: “He’s incredible” pic.twitter.com/TGlDvHvUix

Speaking to Scott Van Pelt on SportsCenter, Young says he’s not caught up in comparisons to guys like Curry, and instead wants to be the best version possible of himself. “I’m very humbled by the comparisons of a lot of NBA players,” he said. “I try to take a little bit from a lot of guys, but I feel the best comparison is Trae Young. I want to be the best version of myself, and I love that comparison the best.” Follow Adam Zagoria on Twitter And Like ZAGS on Facebook
