Tiller Joins Missouri Hoops After Kansas Stint
16 Apr
Summary
- Bryson Tiller, a highly-rated transfer, committed to Missouri.
- Tiller previously played for Kansas and has reunited with GM Tim Fuller.
- He fills a critical size need for Missouri's frontcourt.
Missouri basketball has officially landed its third commitment for the 2026 season in redshirt freshman Bryson Tiller. Tiller, a four-star transfer, chose to join the Tigers over offers from Michigan, Arizona, and Miami. He averaged 7.9 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game during his redshirt freshman season at Kansas.
Tiller's commitment reunites him with Missouri general manager Tim Fuller, who previously worked with Tiller in the Overtime Elite League. The 6-foot-11, 240-pound center brings significant size to Missouri's roster, addressing the need created by the graduation of starting forwards Mark Mitchell and Shawn Phillips Jr.
Tiller will compete for a starting spot against incoming freshman Toni Bryant and returning center Trent Burns. Having played alongside top prospects like Darryn Peterson and Jason Crowe Jr., Tiller is accustomed to high-level competition and is set to face his former team, Kansas, in the upcoming 2026-27 season.
