Jaylon Tyson is quickly playing a role the Cavaliers didn't see coming

With two and a half weeks down in the 2025-26 regular season, Cleveland Cavaliers fans are starting to take note of the increasingly high-level play of Jaylon Tyson. The second-year guard had a pretty quiet rookie campaign with the organization, but his talents are starting to really shine now.

It was always going to be hard for any young player to earn legitimate minutes on such a stacked Cleveland roster. But now, after he's put up double figure scoring performances in each of his last four games, it's clear that Tyson is shifting from a developmental prospect into a real contributor right in front of our eyes.
