In The Spotlight: Tyvez Monroe

Name: Tyvez Monroe

AAU Team: Virginia Cardinals

Height: 5’7

Class: 2015


Breakdown: I saw Tyvez at the MIT this past weekend and he played well enough to get an individual profile. The stocky wing forward has a multi-talented game meaning he can play close to 4 positions. In the semifinals against U-Turn he showed me his ball handling, outside stroke and body control when scoring around the basket. His wide frame allows him to shield defenders while dribbling or scoring in the paint. Finally, Monroe plays the game with great passion and was extremely upset when his squad came up short.
