About Avanta

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I can handle the ball like a point guard, creating offense and setting up teammates, while also possessing the ability to score like a shooting guard, often hitting shots from beyond the arc. I’m a versatile guard who can excel in multiple areas of the game.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I’m relentless, with an unwavering determination and refusal to give up. I possess a strong internal drive and grit, similar to the fierce determination of a dog.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

CP3 Rising Stars TOP 60 Lonestar Showdown Top Performer Pineville High School Basketball MVP LHSSA Most 3-Pointers scored in 2025 Season.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I have a blend of qualities and skills, including communication, empathy, integrity, and adaptability. These are crucial for guiding teams, making decisions, and inspiring others towards a shared vision.

What type of college are you looking for?

I don’t have a particular college I’m looking, I just want a team that will help me succeed as I help them to succeed.

Lyons has not seen a lot of minutes since the move to ASH, but the skill remains. He has all of the skills and tools along with a winning mentality to play at the next level. Every opportunity Lyons is given; he capitalizes by making the plays. He is a three-level scorer with college size and athleticism. Do not be surprised if he grabs meaningful minutes heading into District and makes some big plays.
