Trevor Winter (born January 7, 1974) is an American former professional basketball player who played briefly in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

The 7'0" center[1] from the University of Minnesota[2][3][4] played just one game in the NBA. In the lockout-shortened 1999 NBA season for the Minnesota Timberwolves, in five minutes of action against the L.A. Lakers, Winter grabbed three rebounds and committed five fouls (mostly on dominant center Shaquille O'Neal), making him one of three players in NBA history to have as many fouls as career minutes played.[5] Prior to his short NBA career he played in the International Basketball Association for the Fargo-Moorhead Beez.[5] His son Nolan played at Lakeville North High School and currently is a collegiate basketball player for Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball.
