William Kyle Jr

Next Chapter! 🙏🏿 🧡🍊

@WilliamKyleIII On/off the court, you’ve represented your family with upmost Character & Respect! Extremely proud to call you my son! Love you boy! 🖤 #BM2BMTypeShit #NoLayUps

What a journey it’s been! I’ve been incredibly blessed to wear the jerseys of three prestigious programs—South Dakota State, UCLA, and Syracuse. Thank you to everyone who has supported me during my college journey. The story doesn’t end here… this is just the next chapter🙏🏿.

Syracuse’s William Kyle III is one of the best Big Man Prospects in this year’s NBA Draft. For the season Kyle averaged 8/7/1 along with 2.5 BPG and 1 SPG, while also shooting 66% from the field. Kyle also led all High Major players in Stocks per game with 3.5. Standing at 6’9 with a 7’3 wingspan and a 44 inch vertical Kyle has the tools and frame you want from an elite defensive big in the NBA. Kyle’s mix of elite athleticism, rim protection, defensive versatility, offensive rebounding, finishing, and motor is all of the traits teams are looking for in their rim running bigs in Kyle is one of the best in the class in all of those areas. On the defensive end Kyle uses his length and athleticism to be a highly impactful rim protector who also doesn’t foul which is extremely rare. He’s also versatile enough to play in a lot of different defensive systems and he's also versatile enough to switch onto smaller players. Kyle is also a high level help defender and uses his agility to make quick decision plays on the defensive end. Offensively he’s a very efficient rim runner who’s a strong screen setter, lob threat, while also being able to push in transition. He’s great at positioning himself for dunks where he finished with 59 this season. Kyle is also an efficient long dunking finisher where he shot 66% on layups. Kyle is also a solid passer for his archetype and has the ability to make plays in short roll situations. Kyle is one of 3 players since 2008 to have a BLK% of 9, a STL% of 2, make 50 dunks or more, while fouling under 3 times a game per 40, joining Brandon Clarke and Anthony Davis as the only other players.

"Effort should be a non-negotiable. It shouldn't be a problem for us.... For me it's a non-negotiable to put my head down and keep fighting to the end. That's what I'm going to do." William Kyle III with a clear message postgame. Did not hear the question unfortunately.

Win or lose you can tell when players really love to hoop. It’s tough to watch when it seems like a lot of guys don’t really love it like that.

There are many reasons to be upset with Red and the state of Syracuse Basketball.  But for the love of everything, stop it with the DEI crap.
