Thank you for the correction.

Player makes a heckuva lot more sense than an assistant coach given Trevor's age.

Also Triche's stats are more impressive but he has a year or so more in the D league so it makes sense. They are both listed as 6'4" so presumably are PGs more than SGs, and of course are more accustomed to the zone rather than M2M, but JB always emphasizes that SU players play plenty of M2M in practice because it's what they usually play AGAINST, so it's not a foreign concept to a seasoned veteran SU player like they both were.

What stands out as good for both is that their FT averages are decent, I think 71 percent for Cooney and a bit higher for Triche. More importantly, both are getting a lot of REBOUNDS for their position, especially defensive ones. That their assist totals are pretty low for presumably PGs is ok because at 6'4" each might be perceived as a combo guard. The shooting percentages for Cooney - it's almost too soon to tell but it's not trending good. For Triche, his shooting percentages are substantially better as they ought to be with an extra year's experience.

At the moment I call it a wash for head to head. However I don't really see either as obvious NBA material, but neither can be ruled out yet.

And there's always overseas leagues if the NBA doesn't seem feasible for either or both. The upside there is the travel. Which is also the downside for a player with a child or two. I think Trevor has a kid and Brandon doesn't but correct me if I'm mistaken!
