Obie Trotter

Who is Obie Trotter?

Obadiah Nelson "Obie" Trotter is an American-Hungarian professional basketball player. He is currently playing for Triumph Lyubertsy. He is 6 ft 1 in, weighs 180 lbs. and plays the point guard position. He received Hungarian citizenship in June 20, 2011, and played for Hungary in the unsuccessful Eurobasket 2011 qualification campaign, averaging 11 points and four rebounds per match.

A native of Robertsdale in Baldwin County, Alabama, Trotter had received interest from more established, higher tier mid-major NCAA Division I basketball programs in high school, but he ended up playing at Alabama A&M because his mother wanted him coached by a "godly man." She felt that head coach L. Vann Pettaway fit the bill, and so Trotter became an Alabama A&M Bulldog.
