USC’s disruptive, defense-first guard who brought elite activity and toughness
In his USC career, Jeff Trepagnier was valued less for gaudy scoring than for his two-way impact: he finished second in program history in steals, added strong shot-blocking for a guard, and helped lead the Trojans to the 2001 Elite Eight. His profile suggests a high-motor, physical wing who can create chaos defensively and do the little things that win games, though his pro scoring translated more modestly. If you want a tough, versatile guard who competes on every possession and raises the defensive edge of a roster, he’s a fit.
