One of the largest keys to the surprisingly successful 2018-19 season for the Rebels was 6’2 junior guard Breein Tyree. The former top-100 prospect by 247Sports was a key player throughout his freshman and sophomore campaigns and was a “most of the time” starter in the Ole Miss basketball back-court that showed flashes of greatness.
If Breein Tyree returns, the Ole Miss basketball senior could be one of the favorites to win SEC Player of the Year next season. Tyree was a double-digit scorer his sophomore season, averaging 10.8 points per game and was playing the best basketball of his career towards the end of conference play.
