4-star PG Trent Perry decommits from USC

Los Angeles (Calif.) Harvard Westlake four-star point guard Trent Perry has decommitted from USC, according to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony.

Perry’s decision comes after Trojans head coach Andy Enfield left the program to take the open job at SMU earlier this week.

The 6-foot-4, 175-pounder committed to USC in October 2023 over offers from Colorado, Stanford, Oregon and a number of other programs. He signed with the Trojans in November but will now be requesting a release from his National Letter of Intent and re-opening his recruitment.

Trent Perry Recruiting Profile

Perry is the No. 41 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 7 point guard and the No. 5 recruit in California.

On3 National Recruiting Analyst Jamie Shaw writes this about him as a prospect:

“Trent Perry has a smooth feel for the game. He plays with a mental toughness, with good positional size, and a well-rounded skill set. He is a smooth shooter with range off the bounce and off the catch. He has a repeatable load with a consistent release at each level. He is also a capable ball handler. He can get a team into sets and handle the pressure of point of attack defense. He is an average athlete that lacks top end burst, which could pose some questions. High IQ player, he understands footwork and angles on both ends of the floor. A very steady performer, no matter the situation.”
