Umana Reyer Venezia is pleased to announce that it has signed a multi-year agreement with Tyler Cameron Ennis McIntyre, coming from Hapoel Tel Aviv.
A 191cm playmaker, Ennis was born in Brampton (Ontario, Canada) on 24 August 1994, and is just back from a great season in the ranks of Napoli Basket with which he was a great protagonist, leading the Neapolitans to success in the Italian Cup in Turin.
The twenty-nine year old point guard was the best assist man of the LBA with 6.7 successful passes per game, accompanied by 14.1 points with an average rating of 18.8. Ennis was also the best man-assist in the Final Eight of the Italian Cup (7 per game).
A product of Syracuse University, Tyler Ennis has great experience in the NBA having played around 200 games with the Phoenix Suns (who selected Ennis in the 2014 draft), Milwaukee Bucks, Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Lakers.
From 2020 to 2023 he played in Turkey with the shirts of Turk Telekom Ankara (2020-2022), with which he reached the quarter-finals of the Basketball Champions League in 2020, and Tofas Bursa.
At the end of the 2023/24 Italian championship, he played the final phase of the Super League in Israel with the Hapoel Tel Aviv shirt, coming one victory away from the title won in the final 2-1 by Maccabi Tel Aviv.
During his career he also wore the Canadian national team shirt.
Welcome Tyler Ennis!
