In his junior season, Palermo showed very high upside offensively. The forward can space the floor off the catch and even showed some off-the-dribble abilities from the mid-range area and behind the arc. As an athletic 6’6 post, Ty has nice touch around the rim, being able to elevate opposing defenders. Going into this season, Palermo has the potential to be the best player in the conference.
Ty plays a steady, guard‑driven style built on strong drives to the lane. He’s become more confident as a scorer and more assertive attacking closeouts, and his defensive engagement took a noticeable step forward this season, guarding from wing to block well. His reliability on both ends gives him staying power, and continued development could push him even higher.
Palermo is starting to rise thanks to his athleticism and attacking style. He plays as a slashing small forward, using quick first steps and strong finishes to put pressure on defenses. His ability to get downhill and finish through contact is. As his perimeter shooting confidence and decision‑making continue to develop, Palermo’s blend of athletic tools and aggressive mindset shows potential moving forward.
A 6’4″ wing with length, feel, and toughness Palermo’s upside screams next-level potential.
Ty is a long, fluid wing with positional versatility and a smooth paced game. Palermo’s frame and feel make him a matchup problem in 1A, and his upside as a two-way contributor is undeniable.
Ty fulfills his wing label with attacks from the arc, powerful finishes in traffic, and absorbing contact inside thanks to added upper-body strength. His over-shoulder floater and pivot counters make him a paint-scoring threat that defenders can’t ignore.
