That's great for him. It's a shame we won't see him take the floor for ISU again but he made the right decision. It'll be fun to see him in the NBA next year. Fit is everything, but there are plenty of teams who can use a player like him. I hope he lands in a great situation with a team on the rise and not some hot mess outfit like the Knicks or Cavs.

Great for Tyrese.
Hali be one of my favorite Cyclones to watch in Hilton and for his next team. Amazing his rise from 200+ ranked player to likely Top 10 NBA Draft pick in 2 years.

Some saying he's the 11th prospect... Spurs have the 11 pick as of now if season is canceled.... I'd be beyond ecstatic as die hard fans of both ISU and the Spurs....

This is a no brainer, the kid has some things to work on to live up to his draft projection but you can't turn down that kind of money, super happy for him, he deserves it. The only thing I'm bummed about is that he didn't get to do more in an ISU uniform. We saw lots of great moments from Tyrese but this is just the tip of the iceberg, he's got a a bright, bright future. He's going to be a fan favorite wherever he ends up. I can't think of an easier kid to root for.

How awesome must that feel knowing you’re going to have a career playing a sport you love AND become a multimillionaire at the ripe age of 20.

For some 2020 is a good year.
