Last Season – 67 % FG 73 % FT 8.4 Pts 11.5 Rebs .5 Blks in 27.6 Mins
ESPN Fantasy Projection – 7 Pts 9.6 Rebs .6 Blks in 24 Mins

He is a prime candidate to get traded but has voiced his desire to stay as long as the team is on the path to winning. Tyson shot 67.1 % FG and 73.4 % FT in 2016-17 just shy of his career best from the field and tops from the line. Expect this efficiency to stay. His playing time will go down as the youth grows unless this becomes a Cinderella team that sneaks into the playoffs.

Reasonable Prediction – 6.2 Pts 8.3 Rebs .5 Blks in 20 Mins
Goal – 8.7 Pts 10.4 Rebs .5 Blks in 25 Mins
Middle Ground – 7.4 Pts 9.3 Rebs .5 Blks in 22 Mins
