UTEP’s 6-5 guard brings size, shooting flashes and a redemption arc
In the 2025-26 season, Trey Horton III has been a rotation guard for UTEP, averaging 3.3 points and 1.4 rebounds in 14.8 minutes per game, with a 2025-26 stretch marked by a four-game team suspension before returning to action.[5][13] His best selling points are size for the position, quick-trigger 3-point ability, and low turnover rates, plus he already earned CUSA All-Freshman recognition and a freshman-week nod at UTEP.[1][7] The fit question is simple: if you want a long, bench-scoring wing who can space the floor and stay composed, he’s intriguing; if you need a high-usage creator, that’s not his lane yet.[5][13]
