Hunter Tyson saw his dream come true Thursday night.  In the second round, the Oklahoma City Thunder selected Clemson forward Hunter Tyson with the No. 37 pick. Tyson made a massive jump in his final season as a Tiger to earn the attention of the NBA and now he’s headed to Oklahoma City.

During his final season, he averaged 15.3 points and 9.8 rebounds to make first-team All-ACC, a high honor for the 6-foot-8 forward. His mix of athleticism and over 40% three-point shooting sets him up well for the pro game. The length doesn’t hurt on defense either.

With the Thunder, he mocks up as a backup forward who can stretch the floor while giving them a larger body on the defensive end. Currently, they have Jalen Williams starting  at power forward, with plenty of opportunity for Tyson to rise up the depth chart.
