Austin is the younger brother of Texas starting left tackle Trevor Goosby.
Goosby talks his game
In a previous interview with Rivals, Austin Goosby discussed what type of player he is.
“I’m an overall scorer. I can facilitate, create for other players, and I like getting my teammates involved. I’m talking more on the court, getting my teammates where they need to be, just communicating in general.”
Scouting Report
According to Rivals’ Jamie Shaw, Goosby was one of the top performers at EYBL Memphis in May:
Austin Goosby (Drive Nation) brings a lot of tools to the table, with his projectable frame and intriguing length. The 6-foot-5 four-star’s best game was on Saturday when he finished with 23 points and 10 rebounds. While he finished 3-13 from three on the weekend, he showed intriguing passing chops, moving the ball around when it was in his hands. He averaged 16.3 points and 5.0 assists through the weekend.
He was also a standout at the NBPA Top-100 Camp in Rock Hill, SC, over the summer:
Austin Goosby is one who consistently shows impressive flashes, both scoring and distributing the ball. He has solid size and can toggle between on or off ball roles. He also tends to drift in and out of production throughout the course of games. He has a smooth jump shot, finishing with 10 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists in his second game today.
