Yes. It is Asimina triloba. Hope your water table is high because the long tap roots can easily reach the water source. Or may need watering at times till the plant root system strengthened. Needs shading from direct sun for the first 4 to 5 years. May take 6 to 8 years to flower and fruit.
For me this plant Looks like Diospyrus lotus or maybe Diospyros virginiana - and not like an Asiminia triloba.Here is a sample Picture from Diospyros lotus:https://wildobstschnecke.de/de/Diospyros-lotus---Lotuspflaume.html
I would say Annonacea but not necessarily Asimina (could be cherimola also) but must admit that Diospyros is a good candidate also.Leaves are a little short, but nothing prevents it being Asimina IMO
Its asimina and probably sunflower.Ive looked at the pictures better and it has the brown furry buds.This is my asimina from a sunflower seed( seedling not grafted).The caged one its a prima.And this is my sunflower thats grafted.When it starts to grow leaves,they start yelow. And this is one american persimmon seedling ( D. Virginiana).Leaves start with somme red coloration wich doesnt happen to pawpaws.
