Bryson is a smooth, skilled forward with a versatile approach and a fierce inside-out game. He is a high-IQ playmaker with a feel well beyond his years, Bryson is known for his ability to score from the post, knock down pick-and-pop threes, and create looks for teammates with thread the passing and vision. His poise, toughness, and unselfishness make him a reliable presence on the floor, whether he’s carving up mismatches in the paint or spacing the floor with deep range. What separates Bryson is his mix of versatility and decision-making. He doesn't force plays but makes the right reads, plays through contact, and knows how to control the tempo in any setting. Coaches can count on him to make winning plays without ever chasing the spotlight.

This past season, Bryson averaged 10.8 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, continuing to build his impact at both ends of the floor. His game thrives on finding his spots, takes smart shots, and finishes strong around the rim. Now, with Jay Academy on the 3SSB circuit, he’s competing during the live periods and using every rep to gain exposure, improve his game, and get tougher in high-stakes matchups. His offseason focus is locked in on boosting his conditioning, improving his consistency as a shooter, and sharpening his footwork to elevate his all-around production. From scoring and rebounding to handling defensive assignments and playing through contact, Bryson is locked in on becoming the complete player.

Mentally, Bryson is calm and collected. He doesn’t rattle, he responds. If opponents try to get in his head, it only fuels him more. When facing adversity s, his mindset is. “I just hoop.” The best advice he’s ever gotten came in the middle of a game after a few missed shots, his coach looked him in the eye and said, “You’re the best shooter on the floor. Keep shooting. Get out of your head and hit four to bring us back.” And that’s exactly the energy Bryson plays with: confidence, composure, and quiet intensity.

Off the court, he’s all about spending time with family and playing video games to, swimming, golfing with friends, and hanging out at arcades, Bryson enjoys staying grounded and enjoying life outside the gym. But make no mistake, when the ball is tipped, he’s all business.

I assess that Bryson brings a reliable, versatile skill set that makes him easy to plug into any system. His ability to stretch the floor, play inside, and create for others gives him value in multiple roles. Combine that with his IQ and steady presence, and he becomes a glue guy with real upside.

As he continues to elevate his shooting consistency and add physical strength, Bryson is evolving into a trusted leader and high-impact contributor. He may not be the loudest player in the gym, but his game does all the talking, and it's getting harder to ignore. Stay tuned for a monster upcoming season.
