USA TODAY Sports

Tyler Ennis was initially a star for Syracuse, and in his one season of college basketball, he averaged 12.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 2.1 steals per contest while shooting 41.1% from the field and 35.3% from the three-point range in 34 games.

Following his strong season, Ennis was the 18th pick in the 2014 NBA Draft by the Phoenix Suns.  

The 29-year-old most recently played in the league during the 2018 season when he appeared in 54 games (11 starts) for the Los Angeles Lakers and averaged 4.1 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists per contest while shooting 42.0% from the field and 25.0% from the three-point range.

Recently, he signed with Napoli Basket (h/t Alberto De Roa of HoopsHype). 

This past year, Ennis played 25 games for Tofaş and averaged 14.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.4 steals per contest while shooting 45.4% from the field and 33.0% from the three-point range. 

In addition to the Lakers and Suns, Ennis has also played for the Houston Rockets and Milwaukee Bucks

Over four seasons in the NBA, he has career averages of 4.2 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists per contest while shooting 41.9% from the field and 31.7% from the three-point range in 186 regular season games (he has also appeared in one NBA playoff game with the Bucks).  

At 29, Ennis could still end up back in the NBA at some point if he continues to play well overseas.  

On top of his NBA and International career, Ennis has also played two seasons in the G League.
