Trace Matthew Cureton (born July 30, 1994) is an American-Puerto Rican professional basketball player. He played two seasons of college basketball for the Utah State Aggies. He was selected by Brujos de Guayama with the 13th pick in the 2020 Baloncesto Superior Nacional draft.

Early life[edit]

Cureton was born in Stuttgart, Germany.[1] His family was stationed there due to his father being in the United States Army.[2] In high school, he did not play basketball but participated in track and field and earned All-City honors. He also played tennis.[3] He had a 3.7 grade point average at Cathedral High School and was recruited to play basketball at Cornell University, but the Big Red never extended an offer. An assistant coach suggested that Cureton develop his game at the junior college level, mentioning head coach Jeff Price and Sinclair Community College. [2]

College career[edit]

Cureton began his career by playing at Sinclair.[4] As a freshman he averaged 8.3 points per game, 4.5 rebounds per game and 1.7 assists per game.[5] In his sophomore season, Sinclair peaked at #4 in the national rankings and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in the NJCAA tournament. He averaged 16.5 points per game, 6.5 rebounds per game and 3.1 assists per game.[6] Against JUCO powerhouse Vincennes University, Cureton posted 32 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 assists, winning his matchup with All-American and University of Kentucky recruit Mychal Mulder.[7]

In May of 2014, he signed a National Letter of Intent to play for Utah State University and head coach Stew Morrill, choosing the Aggies over James Madison.[8] His playing time fluctuated throughout his career; [9][10] at the conclusion of his four years in college he had totaled 1031 points, 204 assists, and 321 rebounds,[11] earning the OCCAC Most Improved Player award and 2nd-team All-OCCAC.[3] He served on the team's Leadership Council during his senior year.[3]
