Tyrese Martin declares for the draft

[BGesus4]

Nothing like playing multiple games before realizing your wrist is broken. The man is tough as nails and one of the better offensive rebounders (especially for his size and position) that I’ve seen in a husky uniform.

stud.

Not a Martin hater but I wonder if him or anyone in his inner circle truly believe he has a shot at being drafted.

 

[3rdbass]

Good luck Tyrese. Thanks for giving it your all but coming up short as a team. You will be missed. This is no surprise for me and a good decision for him even he doesn't get drafted which I don't think he will.

There it is…

You may have heard he worked in a factory at one point during COVID to provide for his family. Anyone who heard that story would understand he likely had to go, as I’m guessing the income from those NFTs was not comparable

 

[auror]

Probably my favorite player of the Hurley era.

Just the ultimate team guy. Tough as nails. Improved his play in a lot of areas this year.

 

[djct1999]

Great kid, great player. Deserves all the success he has coming to him!

 

[willie99]

Best of luck Tyrese, and thank you

 

[awfuldan]

Great player, super fun to root for. He really made a tremendous impact in less than two full seasons. Good luck at the next level!

Kid went home and worked a warehouse during Covid to help provide for his family. Getting a chance to hoop & provide for them is a blessing & some. Super happy for him

This is why I always figured he would 100% be gone after this season. Go make that money while you can, Tyrese. I hope he can find his way on to an NBA roster, he’s good enough to stick around

 

[awfuldan]

Made this play with a broken wrist. Next level toughness, not something you see every year.

 

[metsfan2323]

Its not out of the question that he pulls out of the draft and goes to another school for a payday.

 

[BUConn10]

One of my favorite Huskies who transferred in. Good luck TM.

Made this play with a broken wrist. Next level toughness, not something you see every year.

this is my favorite martin play of his two seasons. eye-popping.

he also had a few of the easiest-looking 360 dunks i have ever seen in a basketball game.

will miss rooting for him with the huskies. hope to see him make a roster in the league somewhere.

This is the definitive Tyrese play for me. He was on another level that game, some real "man vs boys" moments for him. Would not have imagined that when he initially transferred here.

A great Husky and I wish him and his family the absolute best. He will be missed!

According to the voices in your head?

 

[UofCT]

Its not out of the question that he pulls out of the draft and goes to another school for a payday.

Why

 

[elmcityboy]

also not enough people talking about the fact that he finished the season well above 40% from three. he had a great year.

 

[metsfan2323]

Why

It's just exploration of all possibilities on my part. We live in a new era with new rule$ and will the UCONN scholarship still be open if he has a change of heart?

I personally would love to see Martin and Cole come back to UCONN for one more go at it.

He will be missed.

 

[AdamaNation]

Does he make the all transfer team with RJ and Shonn Miller? I say …. Yes.

 

[businesslawyer]

Good luck Tyrese. Thanks for giving it your all but coming up short as a team. You will be missed. This is no surprise for me and a good decision for him even he doesn't get drafted which I don't think he will.

Are human beings really that incapable of being gracious? If you couldn’t provide actual good wishes, what would cause you to pretend you’re doing so?

 

[navery12]

Good for Tyrese, he had a great senior year and deserves every dollar he's gonna make playing basketball

 

[LIuconn]

Glastonbury you're a tool

 

[SaeHusky]

Always gave us 100%. His game improved so much over the last 2 years. My favorite husky on this years team. Best of luck Tyrese!
