Prince played three seasons of high school basketball under head coach Jim Weaver at Earl Warren High School in San Antonio, Texas. As a senior, he led the team to the state semifinals. He originally chose to play college basketball with the LIU-Brooklyn Blackbirds, but switched to Baylor due to a coaching change within the former program.\n', 'Prince played 24 games off the bench in his freshman season. He finished the year averaging 3.7 points and 2.2 rebounds in 6.4 minutes per game. In the spring prior to his sophomore season, Prince was on the Big 12 Conference Commissioner\'s Honor Roll. After averaging 6.2 points and 2.8 rebounds in 14.2 minutes per game and appearing in all 38 of Baylor\'s games, he won the Big 12 Sixth Man Award and earned all-conference honors. Entering his fourth season, Fran Fraschilla labeled him as a strong candidate for Big 12 Player of the Year in 2015โ16.\n', 'On June 23, 2016, Prince was selected by the Utah Jazz with the 12th overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft. His rights were later traded to the Atlanta Hawks on July 7 in a three-team deal also involving the Indiana Pacers. On July 15, 2016, he signed his rookie scale contract with the Hawks. On March 11, 2017, he had a then season-best 17 points in a 107โ90 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. On April 6, 2017, he scored a career-high 20 points in a 123โ116 win over the Boston Celtics. With 11 points in Game 4 of the Hawks\' first-round playoff series against the Washington Wizards, Prince became the first Hawks rookie to reach double-figures in his first four playoff games since Pete Maravich did it in five straight in 1971.
