ADMIN NOTE: There's more and more chatter on Tyriek Weeks these days, it's good to break it out of TJ's thread into its own.
Can we just get him on board ASAP.

In the 70-64 OT victory last night we were able to witness something you might never see again! @TyriekWeeks poured in 30 points, blocked 6 shots, and grabbed 34 rebounds! Special night in Warwick!

This, from Tyriek's HS basketball coach. I like his mindset.

Tyriek Weeks (c/o 2021 6’6 F) went bananas with 30 points, 34 rebounds & 6 blocks last night. Get this kid a minutemen jersey already!

^ 34 rebounds? That's downright Chamberlain-esque!

^ Given that Tyriek's 6' 6" and the UMass connection...probably a better choice. That's two more boards than Julius got vs Syracuse on his 21st birthday.

My first Celtics game at the old Garden, with my dad...Bill Russell had 39 rebounds. When I played several games there myself, I knew I was on hallowed parquet.
... back to the days of Weeks...
The younger brother may be the best of them...
69 will be posting about him his senior year @UM circa 2033-2034.
