Tyshawn Taylor

I'm watching St. Anthony's and Tyshawn Taylor on Versus Network right now.  TT and the entire St. Anthony team is very impressive.  My initial impression of Taylor is a taller version of Jerel.  He shows great defensive intensity, as does the entire St. Anthony team, and is very athletic.  He has Jerel-type wingspan and he gets to the rim with a purpose and can score in bunches.  I expect TT to get 10-15 minutes next year, more if DJ leaves for the Pros.  Nick Williams and TT will make a great great backcourt.  Now take this impression with a grain of salt as this is only one game and they are playing a New Mexico HS team (La Cueva).

I also caught a bit of Diamond Taylor of St. Joe's on Comcast Sports here in Chicago last night.  DT is another long guard with a good sense of the game.  I'd also welcome him to Marquette in a heartbeat.

I would also add he has very good ballhandling ability and body control. He got called for a carry that was very marginal, other than that he looked good with both hands. His second foul was a bad call, he hung in the air and avoided direct contact, catching the defenders shoulder, who did a UW-esque flop and got a charge called.
