Early life

Trey Johnson was born and grew up in Jackson, Mississippi. His father, Clinton Jr., and his older brother, Will, played college baseball for Jackson State University.{{cite web|url=http://www.nba.com/draft2007/profiles/TreyJohnson.html|title=Trey Johnson Draft 2007 Profile|work=NBA.com|publisher=Turner Sports Interactive, Inc|access-date=March 14, 2011}} He followed his father's footsteps and started playing baseball since he was young.{{cite web |date=January 23, 2007 |title=Meet Trey Johnson |url=https://www.espn.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/2878 |access-date=March 31, 2024 |work=ESPN.com}} He then started to play basketball during his teenage years. However, he only played basketball intermittently through middle school and high school. He attended Murrah High School and played both basketball and baseball there. He starred as a pitcher during high school and after graduating, he was selected in the 30th round of the 2002 Major League Baseball draft by the Kansas City Royals.{{cite web|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/?year_ID=2002&round=30|title=30th Round of the 2002 MLB June Amateur Draft|work=baseball-reference.com|access-date=March 14, 2011}} However, he opted to attend college and play collegiate sports before turning pro.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}}

College career

Johnson attended Northeast Mississippi Community College in Booneville, Mississippi. He played both baseball and basketball there for one season. As a basketball player, he averaged 19.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 3.0 steals per game. After a year, he enrolled at Alcorn State University and continued to play both sports there. However, at his first appearance as a pitcher for Alcorn State, he suffered a ligament injury on his elbow that required a Tommy John surgery. He needed one year to fully recover from the injury and therefore, he became a full-time basketball player.{{cite web |last=Whelliston |first=Kyle |date=January 10, 2007 |title=Injury forced Trey Johnson from fastballs to 3-balls |url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/columns/story?columnist=whelliston_kyle&id=2726437 |access-date=March 31, 2024 |work=ESPN.com}} He averaged 11.0 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game while shooting 41.5% from three-point range.{{cite web |title=Alcorn State Braves 2003–04 Statistics |url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/team/stats/_/id/2016/season/2004 |access-date=March 31, 2024 |work=ESPN.com}} However, he was unsatisfied with the basketball program there and later transferred to Jackson State University for his junior season.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}}

Due to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) transfer rules, Johnson sat out the 2004–05 season. The following season, he led the Jackson State Tigers to the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Semifinal but the Tigers was defeated by the eventual champion, Southern, 66–59. He averaged 23.5 points on 45.5 percent shooting, 4.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 32 games. With 23.5 points per game, he became the 10th leading scorer in the country and second in the SWAC. He scored a season-high 40 points during a game against Texas Southern. After his junior season, he declared himself eligible for the 2006 NBA draft but later withdrew his name and decided to return to Jackson State for his senior year.{{cite web|url=http://www.nba.com/draft2006/draft_list_060619.html|title=2006 Early-Entry Draft Candidates|date=June 19, 2006|work=NBA.com|publisher=Turner Sports Interactive, Inc|access-date=January 15, 2012}}
