Per Pat:
“A lot of schools wanted Cade,” Medved said. “At the end it came down to us and Iowa. And he was already here in early June, working out, becoming a Gopher.”
That dedication was no surprise, considering Cade’s brother Hunter — three years older — has spent three seasons with the Denver Nuggets, a second-round draft choice, although not getting much playing time.
The Tysons are both 6-foot-7. They grew up in Union County, outside of Charlotte. Cade also has a twin sister, Laikyn, a former volleyball player, and she is already teaching in elementary school.
“My brother and I started off in the driveway, on a basket that didn’t have a net … throwing an orange ball in a red hoop," Cade said this week. “Hunter helped me a lot with my shot. So did my dad [Jonathan]. We were just a North Carolina family that loved basketball.”
Go Gophers!!
