Jeremy Tyler is the youngest foreign player ever to play in the Israeli League.

"I'm very excited to have signed with Maccabi Haifa. I am looking forward to starting my professional basketball career in Israel and helping this team advance to the Final Four," Tyler told Sportando.

Tyler averaged 28.7 points during his junior year at San Diego High.

"Tyler's size and natural talent will present matchup problems in our favor against other teams in Israel," said Coach Avi Ashkenazi. "We know Tyler is hungry to prove himself on the court. We look forward to him developing over the course of the season and improving our team."
