High school career


Carey attended Lamar Consolidated High School in Rosenberg, Texas. He was rated the #1 player in the city of Houston his freshman year by houstonpreps.com. He was also rated a top 100 recruit nationally up until his junior season of high school, but due to the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) ruling him as ineligible due to suspicion of him being a professional athlete, he was forced to sit out his junior year of high school in sports and forfeited all rankings. Carey was rated as a top 100 player by ESPN and rivals all the way up to his second year in high school. As a senior, Carey became a standout guard, leading the Mustangs to a 27-9 overall record and a 13–1 mark in league play while clinching the 2012 District Championship and garnering Second-Team All-District honors.




College career


Originally signed to Texas Tech University, Carey was deemed ineligible by the NCAA for academic reasons. After spending a year in Spain at the Canarias Basketball Academy, he led San Jacinto College to its first NJCAA Division I appearance in ten years. Carey notched 16 double-digit scoring games, eclipsing the 20-point plateau four times. His 2014-15 campaign was highlighted by a career-high 23-point outburst, which came on 10-of-14 shooting, during the Ravens' 129–72 victory over Lone Star College-Kingwood on 11 November.
