Travis Hyman, who currently plays for Bowie State, is attracting some interest from NBA teams this offseason, particularly from the San Antonio Spurs. The player has caught the eye in the summer league as he showcases his talents alongside top college players as well as some NBA stars.

NBA players along whom Hyman has played, and impressed, this summer include Greg Monroe of the Detroit Pistons, Jeff Green of the Boston Celtics and Kevin Durant, two time NBA scoring champion, of the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Co-incidentally the Thunder are one of the teams interested in the centre but it is believed that San Antonio are in pole position. Travis is an athletic big guy, stands 7 feet tall and weighs 245 lbs. The player can hang in the paint but also has a good handle and can, on occasion, pull up for long range jumpers.

He averaged a solid 15.2 points per game for Bowie State last season as well as 9.5 rebounds and an eye raising 4.2 blocks per game. The player has welcomed the interest in his services and said he would be grateful for an opportunity in the NBA,

“I just want to play against a higher level to make me better,”

Hyman played for Team Takeover in the regular season, helping them to a 6-2 record that was enough to clinch the division title.
