In practice, since day one, he\u2019s always the loudest one cheering guys on. He\u2019s all about the team. He\u2019s all about getting better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tyler made his presence known on the basketball court early on. In the team\u2019s season opener on Nov. 2, he scored 25 points and added seven steals during a \u00a0lopsided 142-60 win versus the Red Devils Basketball Academy. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cKaevon is laid back and a very confident person, probably one of the best shooters I\u2019ve played with,\u201d said sophomore shooting guard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdcthereporter.com\/shooting-guard-hill-provides-offensive-fire-power-leadership-sharks\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Elijah Hill<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tyler grew up in Liberty City. His tough upbringing shaped who he is today. The 6-foot-2-inch tall shooting guard said he got accustomed to hearing police sirens and gunshots on a regular basis. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDays wasn\u2019t always bad, some people might buy you a bag of chips from the corner store or you could get your money taken too,\u201d Tyler said. \u201cOutside my house, I could always see a homeless person walking around or you could see someone selling crack outside.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tyler used basketball to keep himself out of trouble. When he was 11 years old, he started playing for the South Beach All-Stars, now known as Nike South Beach. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basketball has helped him garner a variety of accolades. In 2016, he was selected third team All-Dade at the Sports Leadership and Management (SLAM) Charter School and, in 2017, he was a Florida Hoops Top 25 senior shooting guard at South Miami Senior High. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe\u2019s just a hard worker. Everyday he came to get better and in this offense you have to be able to shoot the ball,\u201d Cosby said. \u201cThat\u2019s his strength so he forced his way into the line-up a lot quicker just with his ability to shoot from the three-point [range]. He\u2019s a pure shooter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After his basketball career comes to an end at MDC, Tyler dreams of attending a four-year university and finishing his business administration degree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFrom day one, my father, Alvin Tyler, and my older brother, Lowan Tyler, was there with me every step of the way. We would always work out together and motivate and challenge each other everyday to get better,\u201d Tyler said. \u201cNow all the hard work has paid off.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Sharks\u2019 next game is at home against <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ASA College <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">at the Theodore R.
