Alex Tyus to Spain, Real Madrid

Alex Tyus (203 cm, F) did not find his footing in Turkey. No one did, and Galatasaray is in the midst of a major overhaul. Tyus started this season with the Turkish side leaves after averaging 7.1 ppg and 3.8 rebounds in eight BSL contests.

Tyus will join the Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid immediately.

Real is on top of the ACB standings with a 14-1 record and holds the second spot in the EuroLeague with a 12-5 record.

Alex Tyus holds both the American and Israeli nationality. He played briefly for the Israeli national team seven years ago.

He played college basketball in the SEC where he averaged 9.1 ppg and 6.2 rebounds his senior year at Florida.
