The second-year pro is averaging career highs in points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, and minutes: he became the third Cavs player ever to score at least 39 points on 17 field goal attempts or fewer during Cleveland’s win at Philadelphia on Jan. 16.
Tyson becomes one of 24 Cavaliers players chosen to compete in Rising Stars since its inception in 1994.
The selected Rising Star players will be drafted onto three teams on Tuesday February 10 (7 p.m. ET, Peacock), with a fourth team comprised of NBA G League players. Hall of Famers Carmelo Anthony, Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady will serve as honorary coaches for the Castrol Rising Stars mini-tournament, and Austin Rivers will coach the G League Rising Stars team.
The Rising Stars tournament will air live on Friday, Feb. 13, from the Los Angeles Clippers’ Intuit Dome at 9 p.m. ET.

Well earnt. He’s taken a massive leap this year from an end of bench guy to a starter. Incredible stuff, and what a find at the 20 pick.
Looking back at the draft there’s nobody after him I’d rather, and very few before him. Incredible work by Altman.
Love this guy honestly
