Tyrese is playing his way into an opportunity in the NBA

[Beowulf]

if tyrese left last year, i bet he would have played in an nba game this year with all the covid roster movement and a ton of randos getting shots. believe the league already at a record for number of guys played

as far as next year or whenever, i think at this point you have to assume he'll get some workouts, a summer league run. he won't slip through any cracks, just hope to fall in to a good situation somewhere. he sure looks like one of uconns best players this year and a guy who is gonna make some money playing bball somewhere. whether that is nba or not will hinge on if he can be a 3&D or even a 3 or D

I'm not at all saying Tyrese is the next Sir Charles Barkley but with 6'6" athleticism there are some similarities. T-Mart would have to become a specialist in a particular area or two because he is not an NBA guard. Bulk up and crash the boards. In my admittedly lack of NBA expertise opinion.

And you think college teams are game planning to stop Martin's 3 point shot????

I think they are more focused on contesting the 3. And they are aware of where he is because he is a primary scorer.

He's averaging 14+ PPG and is shooting 36% from three. Opposing coaches will want defenders aware of Martin so they don't give him space to shoot.

Tyrese is having a great season so far, playing his best ball yet.

Jerome Dyson and Rodney Purvis both played in the NBA, albeit briefly. I see no reason why Tyrese Martin can't do the same.

And a much headier and better defender than either IMHO.

it’s all about team development and coaching

i still believe that draymond is on the bench on any other nba team, and eventually gets waived
