Denver Nuggets' Trey Alexander, a two-way rookie, was recognized by the G League as part of the 2024-25 All-NBA G League Third Team for his contributions to the Grand Rapids Gold, where he averaged 25.8 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists, and 1.7 steals in 30 games, shooting 39.5% from the 3-point range. Alexander, the G League Rookie of the Year, ranked second in scoring among players with 15+ appearances and fifth in field goals per game.

Joining Alexander on the third team were Miami Heat's Josh Christopher, Sacramento Kings' Isaac Jones, and Westchester Knicks' Chuma Okeke and TJ Warren. Alexander, a standout from Creighton, also made the G League All-Rookie team, showcasing his performance with eight 30-point games, including a career-high 38 points, during the season. At just 21 years old, Alexander impressed with his consistency and ability to shine in the G League after limited appearances with the Nuggets.

Despite his minimal time with the Nuggets, Alexander's potential was acknowledged by former coach Michael Malone for his resilience and scoring consistency in the G League, where he demonstrated the ability to excel even through mistakes. His impact on the court was evident as he consistently contributed with double-digit scoring in every game played throughout the season.
