Tyson played his college basketball for Clemson (five seasons), and last year, he averaged 15.3 points, 9.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists per contest while shooting 47.9% from the field and 40.5% from the three-point range in 34 games.

He will likely spend a lot of time in the G League this season, so he can get more playing time.
